Cell-free protein synthesis: Recent advances in bacterial extract sources and expanded applications

Cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) is a technology for the production of proteins in vitro, which has emerged as a robust platform for biotechnology and synthetic biology applications. Recently, the renewed scientific interest in CFPS technology has driven the rapid development of cell-free biotechnology. In this review, we focus on the very recent advances and applications of CFPS with a time frame from 2016 to the middle of 2018. First, we...
