Artificial cells that are covered with DNA are referred to as DNA crown cells [1-3]. Synthetic DNA crown cells can develop into DNA crown cells after culture in egg white and can be prepared using sphingosine (Sph)-DNA and adenosine-monolaurin (A-M) com- pounds. Such DNA crown cells formed assemblies or cells that pro- liferated in cultures to which monolaurin was added and could be cultivated in test tubes [4-6]...... ReadMore -
