  • Patent number: 7745171
    Abstract: The present invention provides a preparation method of an insect cell extract solution for cell-free protein synthesis, the insect cell extract solution, a protein synthesis method in a cell-free system, which uses the insect cell extract solution, and a kit for cell-free protein synthesis containing the insect cell extract solution. The extract solution is easily prepared by the method of the present invention and can synthesize a higher amount of protein than by extract solutions prepared by conventional methods.

  • Publication number: 20070099264
    Abstract: It is intended to provide a novel method for posttranslational modification in cell-free protein synthesis and a novel method for cell-free protein synthesis with the use of such posttranslational modification reaction. A method for synthesizing a protein in a cell-free system using an extract liquid for cell-free protein synthesis containing an arthropod-derived extract, characterized in that translation reaction is carried out in the presence of mammal-derived microsomal membranes.

  • Publication number: 20060141559
    Abstract: A method for preparing a cultured mammalian cell extract liquid, comprising at least the step of rapidly freezing a cultured mammalian cell suspended in a solution for extraction; a cultured mammalian cell extract liquid prepared by the process; and a method for cell-free protein synthesis using the extract liquid. Preferably, the method for cell-free protein synthesis comprises the step of prior to conducting of synthetic reaction, effecting incubation of a reaction liquid for cell-free protein synthesis in a state of containing components other than exogenous mRNA for a specified period of time.
