The Rapid Translation System (RTS) is a scalable in vitro protein expression platform that produces large amounts of protein for characterisation studies, functional assays, or structural analysis. RTS enables both transcription and translation utilising High-Yield (HY) and continuous-exchange, cell-free (CECF) technologies, with systems based on bacterial (E. coli) or eukaryotic (wheat germ) cell lysates. RTS offers the advantages of a cell-free protein expression system, whilst eliminating the need for laborious up and downstream steps typically associated with cell-based expression systems.
