Abstract:Cells exhibit diverse structural formations such as biofilms and spores, enabling them to acquire novel functionalities. Many of these structures display biomacromolecules, including enzymes, tethered to cell walls to support various extracellular processes. Alternatively, encapsulating single cells with polymer coatings offers a strategy that circumvents the need for genetic engineering while imparting artificial functionalities to cells. Here, a universal method is presented for encapsulating single gram‐neg… Show more
