1 Introduction The complexity of living mammalian cells is an inspiration for the field of bottom-up synthetic biology, where artificial cells (ACs) are designed, assembled, and explored as mimics of their natural counterparts as recently outlined in several reviews.[1] However, today's efforts are typically limited to imitating a few specific cellular structural or functional features including the membrane composition,[2] compartmentalization,[1] cytoskeleton lookalikes,[3] self-replication...
