A cell-free translation system producing mature green fluorescent protein (GFP) can be a useful tool for studying the mechanism and kinetics of GFP chromophore formation, as well as for fast protein engineering. We report here that the mature GFP can be formed in the cellfree translation system from

β¦ Synopsis
Polysomes from 5.5-day and 6.5-day embryonic chick erythroid cells contain messenger RNA (mRNA) which can be translated into products in a cell-free protein-synthesizing system. The products of the cell-free system coelectrophoresed with carrier globin chains from the cells from which the polysomal pellet was isolated. Wheat germ S30 fraction increases by 1.5--2.0 fold [3H] leucine incorporation into trichloroacetic acid-precipitable material directed by the endogenous mRNA on chick erythroid cell polysomes. The wheat germ probably provides a specific factor or factors absent in a shortage in the incubation medium.

A variety of methylated 4-oxypiperidine derivatives were tested for their ability to inhibit protein synthesis in vitro. A direct correlation was found between the extent of methylation of these compounds and their inhibitory activity in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate cell-free translation system.
