Abstract :
This paper describes a method to arrange liposomes into organized structures with biochemical binding of streptavidin-biotin complex, inspired by the biological anchoring junction. This approach enhances the stability of the liposome structure, which would provide an improved model for a liposome-based tissue in synthetic biology.
