Constructive approach for synthesis of a functional IgG using a reconstituted cell-free protein synthesis system.

ABSTRACT: IgG is an indispensable biological experimental tool as well as a widely-used therapeutic protein. However, cell culture-based expression of monoclonal IgG is costly and time-consuming, making this process difficult to use for high-throughput screening in early-stage evaluation of biologics. With the goal of establishing a fast, simple, and robust high-throughput expression system for IgG, we implemented the synthesis of functional aglycosylated IgG by constructive approach based on a reconstituted prokaryotic cell-free protein synthesis system (PURE system). Optimization of the PURE system revealed that the following factors and reaction conditions were needed for IgG synthesis: (1) inclusion of the disulfide bond isomerase DsbC, (2) adjustment of the GSH/GSSG ratio, (3) inclusion of the
