“…We expect that similar modifications to cell-free systems will have direct applications for the study of other metalloproteins, oxygen-sensitive proteins, and proteins requiring helpers to mature. Additionally, the cell-free system has proven to be adaptable for the production of mammalian proteins (Yang et al, 2005), proteins requiring disulfide bonds (Yin and Swartz, 2004), proteins requiring multiple subunits, proteins requiring [Fe-S] centers and other cofactors (Boyer et al, 2006;Knapp and Swartz, 2004), membrane proteins, proteome libraries, and proteins requiring chaperones (Yin and Swartz, 2004). In combination, these capabilities establish this system as a highly adaptable platform for the production and study of many complex proteins.…”
