Stabilization of Prebiotic Vesicles by Peptides Depends on Sequence and Chirality : A Mechanism for Selection of Protocell-Associated Peptides

Cells require oligonucleotides and polypeptides with specific, homochiral sequences to perform essential functions, but it is unclear how such oligomers were selected from random sequences at the origin of life. Cells were probably preceded by simple compartments such as fatty acid vesicles, and oli...
