A partially self-regenerating synthetic cell

Sebastian Maerkl, Barbora Lavickova, Nadanai Laohakunakorn

Self-regeneration is a fundamental function of all living systems. Here we demonstrate partial molecular self-regeneration in a synthetic cell. By implementing a minimal transcription-translation system within microfluidic reactors, the system is able to r ...
