Semipermeable Mixed Phospholipid-Fatty Acid Membranes Exhibit K(+)/Na(+) Selectivity in the Absence of Proteins

Two important ions, K(+) and Na(+), are unequally distributed across the contemporary phospholipid-based cell membrane because modern cells evolved a series of sophisticated protein channels and pumps to maintain ion gradients. The earliest life-like entities or protocells did not possess either ion...
