The liposome consisting of eggPC, cholesterol, and DSPE-PEG5000 with a molar ratio of 1.5:1:0.08 was used to entrap cell-free protein synthesis reaction mixture. The synthesis of a mutant green fluorescent protein in the liposome was confirmed by the fluorescence emitted from the liposome on flow cytometry analysis and fluorescence microscopy. The protein synthesized in the liposome is hence functional.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
