One of the important features of living systems is their evolvability and their ability to interact with the extracellular environment. Once such a system can be constructed, we will be able to observe the evolutionary processes in the laboratory at a molecular level. However, constructing such molecular systems is a challenge because of the difficulties in working with membrane proteins, very...
The size of cells ranges from 0.1 to 100 μm, regardless of the type of living cells. We have approached the physicochemical meaning using μm-sized polymer droplets covered with a lipid layer as artificial cells. From the molecular analysis inside the artificial cells, we have found that the properties and phase transitions of polymers confined to the artificial cell often differ from those in...
