“…This bionic system, which had integrated life‐like properties, could undergo amoeba‐like morphological transformation based on energy regeneration by implanted live Escherichia coli . [ 76 ] With a progress in the development of synthetic cells, more advanced life‐like behaviors have been designed and exhibited, including locomotion, [ 77–79 ] endocytosis and exocytosis, [ 80–83 ] spontaneous membranization or compartmentalization, [ 25,29,30,62,84–88 ] light‐responsive behavior, [ 89–92 ] CO 2 fixation, [ 93,94 ] energy regeneration/conversion, [ 95,96 ] and external morphology transformation. [ 97–102 ] Moreover, as a step toward bridging the gap between life sciences and material science, these synthetic cells have been developed to exhibit the properties of life‐like materials, including gene transfection, [ 103 ] enzyme‐mediated nitric oxide production for blood vessel vasodilation, [ 104 ] modular microreactor assemblies, [ 105 ] flow column catalysis, [ 33,106 ] heparin scavenging, [ 107 ] ultrasensitive immunoassays, [ 108 ] and therapeutic potential against cancer.…”
