Bidirectional Communication between Droplet Interface Bilayers Driven by Cell-Free Quorum Sensing Gene Circuits

Abstract

The front cover artwork is provided by David T. Gonzales of the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics. The image shows a collection of aqueous water-in-oil droplets with lipid bilayer interfaces. Inside each droplet is a cell-free expression system that is capable of gene expression or intercellular communication. Read the full text of the Research Article at 10.1002/syst.202300029.
