Features- Easy-to-use system allows generation of protein in as little as 1 hour in a single-tube reaction.
- Provides higher yield and greater consistency of functional protein compared to rabbit reticulocyte or wheat germ-based in vitro translation systems.
- Works well with challenging applications such as large proteins (over 150 kDa) and proteins requiring post-translational modification.
- Amenable to high-throughput screening; bulk sizes are available.
Applications- Expression of toxic proteins that are lethal for in vivo expression systems.
- Quick analysis of protein functionality
- Rapid analysis of protein mutations or truncations.
- Expression of proteins with eukaryotic post-translational modifications
- Expression of proteins that are easily degraded or insoluble in conventional in vivo expression systems such as E. coli
- High-throughput proteomic studies
ComponentsHuman Cell-Free Protein Expression System | | Cell Lysate | 100 µL | | Mixture-1 | 60 µL | | Mixture-2 | 10 µL | | Mixture-3 | 20 µL | | T7 RNA Polymerase (200 U/µL) | 10 µL | | pT7 IRES Vector (0.5 µg/µL) | 20 µL | | Control Vector (0.3 µg/µL) | 10 µL |
Notes: - Dissolve Cell Lysate just prior to use, mixing gently by pipetting. Use immdiately. After use, promptly store at -80°C. Although up to five freeze-thaw cycles should not affect performance, store the Cell Lysate in small ready-to-use volume aliquots.
- Mixture-2 and Mixture-3 contain protein. To avoid deactivation, do not stir excessively or vortex.
- The Control Vector contains a beta-galactosidase gene cassette.
- The pT7 IRES Vector included in the kit does not encode fusion tags. Vectors encoding a His or c-myc tag are sold separately.

pT7-IRES Vector informationVectors in the pT7-IRES series include a T7 promoter and EMCV IRES sequence to facilitate transcription and translation in the Human Cell-Free Protein Expression System as well as a Multiple Cloning Site (MCS), convenient tags (N- or C-terminal His or N-terminal Myc tag sequences), a Factor Xa protease cleavage site for tag removal, polyA signal and T7 terminator. - pT7-IRES His-N DNA (Cat. # 3290) encodes an N-terminal His tag
- pT7-IRES His-C DNA (Cat. # 3291) encodes a C-terminal His tag
- pT7-IRES Myc-N DNA (Cat. # 3292) encodes an N-terminal c-Myc tag
