Light-controlled fusion approaches enable dynamic content exchange and membrane remodeling and have enhanced synthetic cell assembly, molecular transport, and signal transduction.
Light-induced membrane fusion enables precise control over membrane merging events for constructing and functionalizing synthetic cells.
Traditional fusion approaches using chemical, physical, and mechanical stimuli often lack specificity and reversibility.
Current light-induced fusion approaches face challenges in efficiency and biocompatibility.
