For the application of multidimensional NMR spectroscopy to larger proteins, it would be useful to perform selective labeling of one of the 20 amino acids. For some amino acids, however, amino acid metabolism drastically reduces the efficiency and selectivity of labeling in in vivo expression systems. In the present study, a cell-free protein synthesis system was optimized, so that highly efficient and selective stable isotope labeling of proteins can be achieved in the absence of amino acid metabolism. The productivity of the E. coli cell-free coupled transcription-translation system was first improved, by about fivefold, by using the T7 RNA polymerase for transcription and also by improving the translation conditions. Thus, about 0.1 mg protein per 1 ml reaction mixture was synthesized. Then, this improved cell-free system was used for Asp- or Ser-selective 15N-labeling of the human c-Ha-Ras protein. With a 15 ml cell-free reaction, using less than 1 mg of 15N-labeled amino acid, 1 mg of the Ras protein was obtained. 1H-15N HSQC experiments confirmed that the Ras protein was efficiently labeled with high selectivity. These results indicate that this cell-free protein synthesis system is useful for NMR studies.

A simple protocol for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells with improved yields and high reproducibility A simple protocol for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells with improved yields and high reproducibility Abstract An easy to use and robust approach for amino acid type selective isotope labeling in insect cells is presented. It relies on inexpensive commercial media and can be implemented in laboratories without sophisticated infrastructure. In contrast to previous protocols, where either high protein amounts or high incorporation ratios were obtained, here we achieve both at the same time. By supplementing media with a well considered amount of yeast extract,...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	10-05-2011 08:57 PM

The best results are obtained by cell-free protein synthesis, where metabolic enzymes are generally less active, but isotope scrambling can never be suppressed completely. We show that...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	02-16-2011 09:34 PM
Cell-free expression and stable isotope labelling strategies for membrane proteins Cell-free expression and stable isotope labelling strategies for membrane proteins Abstract Membrane proteins are highly underrepresented in the structural data-base and remain one of the most challenging targets for functional and structural elucidation. Their roles in transport and cellular communication, furthermore, often make over-expression toxic to their host, and their hydrophobicity and structural complexity make isolation and reconstitution a complicated task, especially in cases where proteins are targeted to inclusion bodies. The development of cell-free expression systems...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	01-09-2011 12:46 PM
