Abstract:Pursuing non‐equilibrium chemistry with (bio)molecules is of utmost importance for the design of life‐like dynamic materials that emerge in a constant flux of energy. Herein, we explore spatial localization of a dissipative self‐assembly of biocondensate (DNA‐histone) via passing chemical fuel (histone) and one fuel‐degrading agent (trypsin) through two arms of the Y‐shaped microfluidic chip. In this case, continuous supply of fuel and fuel‐degrading agent results self‐assembly of biocondensate, maintaining a … Show more
