AbstractCell-free gene expression (CFE) systems from crude cellular extracts have attracted much attention for biomanufacturing and synthetic biology. However, activating membrane-dependent functionality of cell-derived vesicles in bacterial CFE systems has been limited. Here, we address this limitation by characterizing native membrane vesicles in Escherichia coli-based CFE extracts and describing methods to enrich vesicles with heterologous, membrane-bound machinery. As a model, we focus on bacterial glycoengineering. We first use multiple, orthogonal techniques to characterize vesicles and show how extract processing methods can be used to increase concentrations of membrane vesicles in CFE systems. Then, we show that extracts enriched in vesicle number also display enhanced concentrations of heterologous membrane protein cargo. Finally, we apply our methods to enrich membrane-bound oligosaccharyltransferases and lipid-linked oligosaccharides for improving cell-free N-linked and O-linked glycoprotein synthesis. We anticipate that these methods will facilitate on-demand glycoprotein production and enable new CFE systems with membrane-associated activities.

Phospholipid synthesis is a fundamental process that promotes cell propagation and, presently, is the most challenging issue in artificial cell research aimed at reconstituting living cells from biomolecules. Here, we constructed a cell-free phospholipid synthesis system that combines in vitro fatty acid synthesis and a cell-free gene expression system that synthesizes acyltransferases for phospholipid synthesis. Fatty acids were synthesized from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, then continuously converted into phosphatidic acids by the cell-free synthesized acyltransferases. Because the system can avoid the accumulation of synthetic intermediates that suppress the reaction, the yield of phospholipid has significantly improved from previous schemes (up to 400 μM). Additionally, by adding enzymes for recycling CoA, we synthesized phosphatidic acids from acetic acid and bicarbonate as carbon sources. The constructed system is available to express the genes from pathogenic bacteria and to analyze the synthesized phospholipids. By encapsulating our system inside giant vesicles, it would be possible to construct the artificial cells in which the membrane grows and divides sustainably.
