Abstract

It is accepted by many authors that the formation of closed molecular structures is a key step in the evolution of life. Oleate vesicles represent a good model system in this framework due to the fact that they self-assemble spontaneously and that fatty acids are considered as possible prebiotic structures. In this contribution, we will focus the attention on the transition from oleate micelles to oleic acid/oleate vesicles induced by a pH change. This transformation is strongly influenced by the presence of pre-formed vesicles. We called this phenomenon the matrix effect. The influence of pre-added POPC liposomes (POPC = 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine) and oleic acid/oleate vesicles on the process rate and on the final size distribution will be discussed elucidating the main differences between these two systems.

  • The size of the newly formed vesicles was close to that of the original preformed vesicles.

    “Strikingly, the size of the newly formed vesicles was close to that of the original preformed vesicles (Rasi et al. 2004).”

  • The addition of excess alkaline oleate micelles to preformed oleate vesicles, buffered at a lower pH, led to an increase in vesicle number.

    “However, the addition of excess alkaline oleate micelles to preformed oleate vesicles, buffered at a lower pH, led to an increase in vesicle number.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
