When an external target molecule enters an artificial cell by membrane permeation, if a riboswitch-gene fusion specific to the target is present inside, a glowing protein is expressed from the ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute, King's College London and the University of Fribourg have developed polymer water ...

The transfer of this principle to artificial cells is a challenge in ... to facilitate the passage of therapeutic proteins ...

PLGA, creating microparticles (2). The microparticles are then encased in cell membranes derived from human MSCs (3) to allow the synMSCs to anchor to tissues and gradually release secreted factors, ...

Growing cells in the laboratory is an art that humans have mastered decades ago. Recreating entire three-dimensional tissues is much more challenging. Researchers are developing a new hydrogel-based ...

The amoeba-like robot uses biomolecules, such as DNA and protein, to integrate molecular machines into an artificial cell membrane. In response to different DNA signals it then shifts shapes, like ...

Endocytosis occurs when the cell membrane engulfs particles (dark blue) outside the cell, draws the contents in, and forms an intracellular vesicle called an endosome. This vesicle travels through ...

have been used with cell-free systems to create artificial cell-based sensors for detecting membrane-permeable targets. However, all such sensors reported to date are based on prokaryotic cell ...

When an external target molecule enters an artificial cell by membrane permeation, if a riboswitch-gene fusion specific to the target is present inside, a glowing protein is expressed from the gene ...
