This paper demonstrates genetically programmed shape-morphing in engineered living materials using enzymatic reactions to control hydrogel properties and motion.

The paper develops optogenetic tools to cluster eGFP-tagged proteins and uses them to activate NF-κB signaling by clustering IKKα and IKKβ.

This study shows that genetically programmed mechanical properties of bacterial engineered living materials modulate mechanosignaling in mammalian cells.

This paper develops a red light-responsive hydrogel that allows reversible control of stiffness for cell positioning in microfluidic systems.
