Molecular complementarity between simple, universal molecules and ions limited phenotype space in the precursors of cells.

Biology direct - 4 Dec 2014

Norris Vic, Reusch Rosetta N, Igarashi Kazuei, Root-Bernstein Robert

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fundamental problems faced by the protocells and their modern descendants include how to go from one phenotypic state to another; escape from a basin of attraction in the space of phenotypes; reconcile conflicting growth and survival strategies (and thereby live on 'the scales of equi...
