GenCefe's scientific team has developed a proprietary cell-free protein expression technology platform to solve the problem of expression of special proteins, such as membrane proteins and toxic proteins. Our team has rich practical experience in GPCR, ion channel proteins, aquaporins, and transport proteins. We provide flexible services to meet customers' specific needs.
Cell-free protein expression system is an in vitro protein expression technology based on cell extracts. In vitro synthesis uses exogenous mRNA or DNA as the template, and artificially controls the substrates, transcription and translation related factors required for protein synthesis to achieve in vitro synthesis of the target protein. Due to the simple genetic background and convenient use, cell free protein expression has become an important technology for various applications. It is especially suitable for small and medium-scale protein expression, high-throughput expression screening, and difficult membrane protein production.
