Light-patterned protein expression in single pL-sized droplets within synthetic tissues. (a) Schematic representing the light-activated expression of the fluorescent mVenus protein in single droplets of a synthetic tissue. (b) Light-activated expression of mVenus in two separate droplets of a synthetic tissue. (c) Fluorescence intensity line profile through the two activated droplets in ‘b’. (d) Light-activated expression of a single-droplet-wide pathway in a synthetic tissue. (e) Fluorescence intensity line profiles through two single droplets of the pathway in ‘d’, showing that the width of the fluorescent pathway is around 100 μm, which is the width of a single droplet. (f) Light-activated expression of a face-like pattern in a synthetic tissue. Scale bars, 200 μm.
