Applications range from fundamental research, through high-throughput screening to niche manufacture of therapeutic products. This review/perspective focuses on Quality Control in CFPS. The importance and difficulty of measuring the Raw Material Attributes (RMAs) of whole cell extract, such as constituent protein and metabolite concentrations, and of understanding and controlling these complicated enzymatic reactions is explored, for both centralised and distributed industrial production of biotherapeutics. It is suggested that a robust cell-free extract production process should produce cell extract of consistent quality; however, demonstrating this is challenging without a full understanding of the RMAs and their interaction with reaction conditions and product. Lack of technology transfer and knowledge sharing is identified as a key limiting factor in the development of CFPS. The article draws upon the experiences of industrial process specialists, discussions within the Future Targeted Healthcare Manufacturing Hub Specialist Working Groups and evidence drawn from various sources to identify sources of process variation and to propose an initial guide towards systematisation of CFPS process development and reporting. These proposals include the development of small scale screening tools, consistent reporting of selected process parameters and analytics and application of industrial thinking and manufacturability to protocol development.</p>","PeriodicalId":72921,"journal":{"name":"Engineering biology","volume":"7 1-4","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ietresearch.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/enb2.12029","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138578183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Brödel et al. (2016) engineered 12 such cIλ transcription factor variants using a directed evolution ‘PACEmid’ system. The variants operate as dual activator/repressors and expand gene circuit construction possibilities. However, the high‐copy phagemid vectors carrying the cIλ variants imposed high metabolic burden upon cells. Here, the authors ‘remaster’ the phagemid backbones to relieve their burden substantially, exhibited by a recovery in Escherichia coli growth. The remastered phagemids' ability to function within the PACEmid evolver system is maintained, as is the cIλ transcription factors' activity within these vectors. The low‐burden phagemid versions are more suitable for use in PACEmid experiments and synthetic gene circuits; the authors have, therefore, replaced the original high‐burden phagemids on the Addgene repository. The authors’ work emphasises the importance of understanding metabolic burden and incorporating it into design steps in future synthetic biology ventures.","PeriodicalId":72921,"journal":{"name":"Engineering biology","volume":"6 2-3","pages":"50-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9996709/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9183898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
