An important aspect of the group of homeostatic compositions are how distant they are from the equimolar concentrations in the environment. This is a hallmark of the fact that these compositions are governed by kinetic phenomena away from equilibrium. Without composition-driven kinetic effects, whereby the entry and exit rates for all lipid types would be equal, equilibrium will be reached at compositions that reflect the outside concentrations15. The resultant homeostatic compositions in our analysis are more distant from the equimolar state than 40.38% of possible compositions. This nontrivial finding is significant as it portrays away-fromequilibrium dynamics for self-reproducing mixed micelles that defines living cells.
