Controlled exchange of protein and nucleic acid signals from and between synthetic minimal cells

This study demonstrates the controlled exchange of protein and nucleic acid signals between synthetic minimal cells using cell penetrating peptides.

A gene expression control technology for cell-free systems and synthetic cells via targeted gene silencing and transfection

The paper introduces a silencing oligo method to control gene expression in cell-free systems and synthetic cells through targeted mRNA binding and transfection.

T7Max transcription system

The paper introduces a modified T7 RNA polymerase promoter, T7Max, that enhances transcription and translation yields in cell-free systems by increasing transcript concentration.
