Since cell-free systems circumvent possible cytotoxic effects caused by protein overexpression in living cells, they significantly enlarge the scale and variety of proteins that can be characterized. We demonstrate the high potential of eukaryotic CFPS to express various types of membrane proteins covering a broad range of structurally and functionally diverse proteins. Our eukaryotic cell-free translation systems are capable to provide high molecular weight membrane proteins, fluorescent-labeled membrane proteins, as well as posttranslationally modified proteins for further downstream analysis.}, language = {en} } @misc{ZemellaThoringHoffmeisteretal.2018, author = {Zemella, Anne and Thoring, Lena and Hoffmeister, Christian and Šamal{\´i}kov{\´a}, M{\´a}ria and Ehren, Patricia and W{\"u}stenhagen, Doreen Anja and Kubick, Stefan}, title = {Cell-free protein synthesis as a novel tool for directed glycoengineering of active erythropoietin}, series = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Postprints der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {824}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-42701}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-427017}, pages = {14}, year = {2018}, abstract = {As one of the most complex post-translational modification, glycosylation is widely involved in cell adhesion, cell proliferation and immune response.
