Cell-Free: Our Contribution

In vitro Expression

  • Attempted to make S30 E. coli cell extract and feeding solution
  • Successfully used commercial S30 E. coli cell extract and feeding solution from [http://www.promega.com Promega] for expression of GFP
  • Successfully used homemade S30 E. coli cell extract with commercial feeding solution for expression of GFP
  • Attempting to characterize the temperature range and timespan of expression of our reporter DNA constructs using commercial S30 E. coli cell extract and feeding solution


Vesicles Formation

  • Successfully formed empty vesicles, as well as vesicles encapsulating GFP, in Tris-Cl buffer
  • Successfully formed vesicles encapsulating GFP in homemade S30 E. coli cell extract
  • Attempting to enclose cell extract in vesicles to attain expression of reporter DNA constructs
  • Attempting to find suitable pore proteins to prolong vesicle and expression lifespan
