“…One aliquot was taken for each lysis method and used in an in vitro translation reaction as previously published with a few modifications 1 . Each 10uL reaction consisted of 7uL of lysate, 10 µM amino acid mixture, 20 mM HEPES/KOH pH 8.0, 75 mM KOAc, a range of 1-5mM Mg(OAc)2, 2 mM DTT, 0.5 mM ATP, 0.1 mM GTP, 20 mM creatine phosphate, 0.2 μg/μl creatine kinase, and 0.5 pmoles of Nanoluciferase reporter RNA.…”
