With the ultimate aim to construct a living cell, bottom-up synthetic biology strives to
reconstitute cellular phenomena in vitro–disentangled from the complex environment of a …

Constructing higher-order vesicle assemblies has discipline-spanning potential from
responsive soft-matter materials to artificial cell networks in synthetic biology. This potential …

Small unilamellar vesicles (SUVs) are indispensable model membranes, organelle mimics,
and drug and vaccine carriers. However, the lack of robust techniques to functionalize or …

In nature, cells self-assemble into spatially coded tissular configurations to execute higher-
order biological functions as a collective. This mechanism has stimulated the recent trend in …

The use of artificial cells to mimic living tissues is beneficial for understanding the
mechanism of interaction among cells. Artificial cells hold immense potential in the field of …

The design of membrane-based constructs with multiple compartments is of increasing
importance given their potential applications as microreactors, as artificial cells in synthetic …

More than one out of every three new cancers is a skin cancer, and the large majority are
basal cell carcinomas (BCC). Targeted therapy targets the cancer's specific genes, proteins …

The interplay between nucleic acids and lipids underpins several key processes in
molecular biology, synthetic biotechnology, vaccine technology, and nanomedicine. These …

Biology has evolved a variety of agents capable of permeabilizing and disrupting lipid
membranes, from amyloid aggregates, to antimicrobial peptides, to venom compounds …
