The evolutionary dynamics of metabolic protocells.

PLoS computational biology - 1 Jul 2018

Pechuan Ximo, Puzio Raymond, Bergman Aviv

Abstract excerpt

Protocell multilevel selection models have been proposed to study the evolutionary dynamics of vesicles encapsulating a set of replicating, competing and mutating sequences. The frequency of the different sequence types determines protocell survival through a fitness function. One of the defining features of these models is the genetic load generated when the protocell divides and its sequences are assorted...
