Deskripsi
Despite the advances in engineered living materials (ELMs), the diversity of ELMs especially those that are capable of autonomous self-fabrication and regeneration, is low. Here, the authors engineer a resilient ELM biocomposite using Bacillus subtilis and secreted EutM proteins as selfassembling scaffold building blocks.
