Is it applicable to cells that have cell walls?

I am interested in using this technology in fungal and plant cells, which have cell walls. Appreciate to know whether this can be easily adapted to these systems.

We never tested our tools in plant or fungal cells, but I would expect these techniques to be fully applicable. The only bottleneck would be the construct delivery and expression in these cell types, as well as compatibility with downstream effectors (such as caspases or gasdermins).
