STUDY OF MINIMAL OPTIMAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS FOR THE ORIGIN OF PROTOCELL-LIKE MICROSTRUCTURES IN PREBIOTIC ATMOSPHERE

ZOOLOGY

The 1:2:1:1 Jeewanu mixture shows the photochemical formation of protocell-like microstructures ‘Jeewanu’ (1970). The optical and electron probe microscopic observations shows that ‘Jeewanu’ have distinct structural organization and were able to show some properties of biological orders. The histochemical investigations show the histochemical localization of some compounds of biological interest and also show some enzyme-like activities. The ‘Jewanu mixture’ satisfies the optimal conditions for self-assembly and self-organization and emergence of minimal protocell-like system.
