    Abstract The important roles that protein glycosylation plays in modulating the activities and efficacies of protein therapeutics have motivated the development of synthetic glycosylation systems in living bacteria and in vitro. A key challenge is the lack of glycosyltransferases that can efficiently and site-specifically glycosylate desired target proteins without the need to alter primary amino acid sequences at the acceptor site. Here, we report an efficient and systematic method to screen a library of glycosyltransferases capable of modifying comprehensive sets of acceptor peptide sequences in parallel. This approach is enabled by cell-free protein synthesis and mass spectrometry of self-assembled monolayers and is used to engineer a recently discovered prokaryotic

    Abstract Non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) can be incorporated into peptides and proteins to create new properties and functions. Site-specific ncAA incorporation is typically enabled by orthogonal translation systems comprising a stop codon suppressing tRNA (typically UAG), an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase, and an ncAA of interest. Unfortunately, methods to discover and characterize suppressor tRNAs are limited because of laborious and time-consuming workflows in living cells. In this work, we develop an

    Abstract Cell-free synthetic biology enables rapid prototyping of biological parts and synthesis of proteins or metabolites in the absence of cell growth constraints. Cell-free systems are frequently made from crude cell extracts, where composition and activity can vary significantly based on source strain, preparation and processing, reagents, and other considerations. This variability can cause extracts to be treated as black boxes for which empirical observations guide practical laboratory practices, including a hesitance to use dated or previously thawed extracts. To better understand the robustness of cell extracts over time, we assessed the activity of cell-free metabolism during storage. As a model, we studied conversion of glucose to 2,3-butanediol. We found that cell extracts from

    Abstract Reverse transcriptase-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) diagnostic tests for SARS-CoV-2 are the cornerstone of the global testing infrastructure. However, these tests require cold-chain shipping to distribute, and the labor of skilled technicians to assemble reactions and interpret the results. Strategies to reduce shipping and labor costs at the point-of-care could aid in diagnostic testing scale-up and response to the COVID-19 outbreak, as well as in future outbreaks. In this study we test both lab-developed and commercial SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic RT-qPCR mixes for the ability to be stabilized against elevated temperature by lyophilization. Fully assembled reactions were lyophilized and stored for up to a month at ambient or elevated temperature and were subsequently assayed for their ability to detect dilutions of synthetic SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Of the mixes tested, we show that one commercial mix can maintain activity and sensitivity after storage for at least 30 days at ambient temperature after lyophilization. We also demonstrate that lyoprotectants such as disaccharides can stabilize freeze-dried diagnostic reactions against elevated temperatures (up to 50°C) for at least 30 days. We anticipate that the incorporation of these methods into SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic testing will improve testing pipelines by reducing labor at the testing facility and eliminating the need for cold-chain shipping.
