The wheat germ cell-free TNT® SP6 High-Yield Protein Expression
System produces high levels of functional protein. Functional protein
yield can reach 100µg/ml in batch mode and 400–500µg/ml in dialysis
mode. A method for the production of functional procaspase-3 and the
mature protein, caspase-3, using the same vector with different modes of
protein synthesis is described. Full-length procaspase-3 was produced
(>70µg/ml) in batch mode, while functional processed caspase-3 was
produced (~400–500µg/ml) in dialysis mode.
