Recent advances in membranized coacervates as functional compartments: synthetic strategies and mechanisms for prototissues

Key Points

The aim is to explore how coacervates phase-separate and evolve into protocells with membranes for prototissue development.
Examined methods of synthesizing membranized coacervates
Investigated the transformation processes into protocells
Analyzed functionalities of assembled prototissues
Protocells formed from phase-separated coacervates exhibit efficient catalysis
Functional prototissues successfully demonstrate the ability to catalyze various chemical reactions

Abstract

Building blocks phase-separate into complex coacervates, then transform into protocells with engineered membranes. These protocells assemble into functional prototissues capable of catalyzing chemical reactions efficiently.
