Computing with Synthetic Protocells
Acta Biotheoretica, 2015In this article we present a new kind of computing device that uses biochemical reactions networks as building blocks to implement logic gates. The architecture of a computing machine relies on these generic and composable building blocks, computation units, that can be used in multiple instances to perform complex boolean functions.

The monograph discusses models of synthetic protocells, which are cell-like structures obtained from non-living matter endowed with some rudimentary kind of metabolism and genetics, but much simpler than biological cells. They should grow and proliferate, generating offsprings that resemble in some way the parent protocells with some variation, so that

Toward Understanding Protocell Mechanosensation
Origins of Life and Evolution of Biospheres, 2010Mechanosensitive (MS) channels can prevent bacterial bursting during hypo-osmotic shocks by responding to increases in lateral tension at the membrane level through an integrated and coordinated opening mechanism. Mechanical regulation in protocells could have been one of the first mechanisms to evolve in order to preserve their integrity against ...

Organic microstructures and terrestrial protocells
Naturwissenschaften, 1977This letter concerns several issues in Folsome's recent paper on "Synthetic Organic Microstructnres and the Origins of Cellular Life" [1]. Thereismuch agreement [2, 3] that facile early formation of cell-like structures from (appropriate) nonbiological polymers is a crucial question [4]. However: 1.

Protocell Research and Its Implications
Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, 2010If and when protocells exist, they will exhibit three requisites for life: regeneration, replication, and evolution. Based on a recent collection of articles, this essay examines two major questions: (1) should research on development of protocells continue, and (2) what are the implications of this research for our understanding of "life."On the first

Heterotrophic Model Protocells
2012Heterotrophic model protocells are easier to build in the laboratory than autotrophic protocells. Advancements have shown that model heterotrophic systems can grow, divide, copy nucleic acids, and compete for resources. The required component molecules of the system are few and simple, in the sense that only a small number of monomeric species are ...
