Cell-Free In Vitro Protein Expression
A rapid and flexible protein synthesis system that uses cell lysates rather than living cells to produce proteins, ideal for high-throughput expression of toxic or unstable proteins.
Cell-free protein synthesis bypasses the need for cell culture and transfection. By providing the necessary transcription/translation machinery in a test tube, it allows for rapid production of proteins in hours. This system is particularly useful for incorporating non-natural amino acids, producing toxic proteins, and for high-throughput screening.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Very Fast - Protein in Hours, Not Days or Weeks
- Bypasses Cellular Toxicity and Folding Limitations
- Ideal for Incorporation of Modified Amino Acids and Isotopes
- Scalable from Microplates to Milliliter Reactions
Relevant Applications:
- High-Throughput Protein Expression Screening
- Production of Toxic or Proteolytically Unstable Proteins
- Protein Labeling with Stable Isotopes (NMR) or Selenomethionine (X-ray)
- Synthetic Biology and Protocell Research
