An inorganic mineral-based protocell with prebiotic radiation fitness

Abstract Protocell fitness under extreme prebiotic conditions is critical in understanding the origin of life. However, little is known about protocell’s survival and fitness under prebiotic radiations. Here we present a radioresistant protocell model based on assembly of two types of coacervate dro...
