This paper introduces DNA origami membranes that self-assemble into cell-scale containers, enabling programmable compartmentalization for bottom-up biology and soft robotics.

This paper introduces a method to create freestanding DNA shells that mimic lipid membranes, demonstrating their ability to retain geometric features from templates and form tunable compartments.

The paper shows that bacterial investment in flagellar motility is constrained by hydrodynamics and fitness costs, with E. coli strains maximizing motility under nutrient-rich conditions.
