  • Patent number: 11371047
    Abstract: The technology provided herein relates to novel promoter constructs, method and systems for an increase in the target protein yield and/or allowing the use of lower template concentration in the cell-free protein synthesis systems.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 25, 2018
    Date of Patent: June 28, 2022
    Assignee: Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft zur Foerderung der angewandten Forschung e.V.
    Inventors: Matthias Buntru, Simon Vogel, Stefan Schillberg
  • Patent number: 11317623
    Abstract: The technology provided herein relates to novel methods and systems for cell-free protein synthesis, in particular to cell-free protein synthesis systems suitable for protein synthesis before and after freezing for a short- or long-term storage, wherein said system comprises a cryoprotectant.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 25, 2018
    Date of Patent: May 3, 2022
    Assignee: FRAUNHOFER-GESELLSCHAFT ZUR FOERDERUNG DER ANGEWANDTEN FORSCHUNG E.V.
    Inventors: Matthias Buntru, Simon Vogel, Stefan Schillberg
  • Patent number: 10988727
    Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to novel cell cultivation and cell and/or cell-derived product production processes that have advantages over currently existing fermentation strategies. The processes and methods according to the present disclosure may be used for an efficient supply of highly viable and metabolically active eukaryotic cells for transient production platforms, as an alternative production process with advantages over currently applied processes (batch, fed-batch or perfusion strategies) and for generating metabolically highly active biomass for subsequent use for transient expression systems or infection by a virus or pseudovirus or in cell-free systems.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: April 27, 2021
    Assignee: FRAUNHOFER-GESELLSCHAFT ZUR FOERDERUNG DER ANGEWANDTEN FORSCHUNG E.V.
    Inventors: Daniel Blessing, Tanja Holland, Markus Sack, Matthias Buntru, Simon Vogel
  • Publication number: 20200248191
    Abstract: This disclosure concerns the systems, methods, and kits for the in vitro synthesis of biological macromolecules in a reaction utilizing cell lysates containing plastids, mitochondria and/or chloroplasts, wherein creatine phosphate and creatine kinase are not added to the reaction to provide artificial energy regeneration.
    Type: Application
