Abstract

DNA crown cells are artificial cells in which the outside of the membranes is covered with DNA. These cells can be easily synthesized with a sphingosine (Sph)-DNA-adenosine mixture and multiplied within egg whites. Currently, many kinds of DNA crown cells have been synthesized using DNA from various species. Previously, it was demonstrated that various types of assemblies are formed when DNA crown cells prepared using DNA from Escherichia coli are mixed with Bacillus subtilis, and many objects were derived from the assemblies. In the present study, I clarified whether similar assemblies could be formed by human placenta DNA crown cells instead of E. coli crown cells. I found that such assemblies were formed although there were some differences between the assemblies of crown cells with E. coli and those with placenta DNA.
