Making the Most of Membrane Protein Production

Learn how cell-free protein synthesis helps researchers overcome the challenges of traditional membrane protein production techniques.

Share

Membrane proteins are ubiquitous cellular components that are responsible for a wide array of cellular and molecular activities, including drug metabolism, lipid shuttling, and antibiotic resistance. Producing membrane proteins for research purposes is fraught with challenges related to detergents that can damage protein structure and function.

Download this article to explore how an innovative cell-free protein synthesis system helps scientists eliminate obstacles to rapid, reliable, and efficient membrane protein production.
