Reconstruction of life’s functions with natural and unnatural components represents one of the great challenges of natural sciences. Compartmentalization, encapsulation and surface decoration of globular assemblies, known as vesicles, represent the earliest and the most primitive steps towards synthetic cells. This lecture will discuss the used of sequence-defined unimolecular components based on bio-renewable materials as biological membrane mimics to construct synthetic cells and encode molecular recognition processes vias new morphological concepts.
