  • Publication number: 20240026411
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, components, and compositions for cell-free synthesis of proteins and glycoproteins. The methods, systems, components, and compositions may be utilized for incorporating non-standard amino acids (nsAAs) into cell-free synthesized proteins and glycosylating or otherwise modifying the cell-free synthesized proteins in vitro. The nsAAs of the cell-free synthesized protein may be modified via glycosylation or other modification.

  • Publication number: 20230279460
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, components, and compositions for cell-free synthesis of glycosylated proteins. The glycosylated proteins may be utilized in vaccines, including anti-bacterial vaccines. The glycosylated proteins may include a bacterial polysaccharide conjugated to a carrier, which may be utilized to generate an immune response in an immunized host against the polysaccharide conjugated to the carrier. The glycosylated proteins may be synthesized in cell-free glycoprotein synthesis (CFGpS) systems using prokaryote cell lysates that are enriched in components for glycoprotein synthesis such as oligosaccharyltransferases (OSTs) and lipid-linked oligosaccharides (LLOs) including OSTs and LLOs associated with synthesis of bacterial O antigens.
