TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss how communication channels and modes of signal processing can be established between living cells and cytomimetic agents such as giant unilamellar lipid vesicles, proteinosomes, polysaccharidosomes and polymer-based giant vesicle and membrane-less coacervate micro-droplets.

Can coacervation unify disparate hypotheses in the origin of cellular life
TL;DR: Evidence that coacervation could have played a unique role during the origin of life based on its ability to form from a range of different prebiotically relevant molecules and partition solutes and maintain the solute’s partition coefficient during enzymatic reactions is provided.

TL;DR: A bio-inspired inorganic synzyme is employed to construct a micro-compartment with multi-functional activity providing a step towards the development of protocell reaction networks.
Artificial Gel‐Based Organelles for Spatial Organization of Cell‐Free Gene Expression Reactions
TL;DR: It is shown that RNA signals transcribed from transcription organelles can be specifically targeted to capture organellees via hybridization to the corresponding DNA addresses, and it is demonstrated that mRNA molecules are only translated in translation organelle containing their cognate DNA triggers.

TL;DR: A protein-synthesizing system reconstituted from recombinant tagged protein factors purified to homogeneity was developed, and omission of a release factor allowed efficient incorporation of an unnatural amino acid using suppressor transfer RNA (tRNA).
Man-made cell-like compartments for molecular evolution
TL;DR: It is demonstrated the linkage of genotype to phenotype in man-made compartments using a model system and a selection for target-specific DNA methylation was based on the resistance of the product (methylated DNA) to restriction digestion.

TL;DR: The alpha-hemolysin pore protein from Staphylococcus aureus is expressed inside the vesicle to create a selective permeability for nutrients to solve the energy and material limitations and increase the capacity of the reactor.
