DOI: 10.1002/smll.201704077
Abstract: Prior to the evolution of membrane proteins, intrinsic membrane stability and permeability to polar solutes are essential features of a primitive cell membrane. These features are difficult to achieve simultaneously in model protocells made of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-08174-x
Abstract: All living cells consist of membrane compartments, which are mainly composed of phospholipids. Phospholipid synthesis is catalyzed by membrane-bound enzymes, which themselves require pre-existing membranes for function. Thus, the principle of membrane continuity creates a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/1674-0068/cjcp1910174
Abstract: Multinanoparticles interacting with the phospholipid membranes in solution were studied by dissipative particle dynamics simulation. The selected nanoparticles have spherical or cylindrical shapes, and they have various initial velocities in the dynamical processes. Several translocation… read more here.
