title = "A Highly Productive, One-Pot Cell-Free Protein Synthesis Platform Based on Genomically Recoded Escherichia coli",
abstract = "Des Soye et al. create and optimize a strain of Escherichia coli that expresses T7 RNA polymerase so that lysates prepared from the strain are enriched with sufficient polymerase to catalyze high-yielding cell-free transcription and translation reactions. Using the resulting platform, the authors synthesize products containing up to 40 non-canonical amino acids.",
keywords = "cell-free protein synthesis, chemical biology, genetic code expansion, genome engineering, in vitro transcription and translation, non-canonical amino acids, synthetic biology",
