摘要

Cell-free (CF) expression technologies have emerged as promising methods for the production of individual membrane proteins of different types and origin. However, many membrane proteins need to be integrated in complex assemblies by interaction with soluble and membrane-integrated subunits in order to adopt stable and functionally folded structures. The production of complete molecular machines by CF expression as advancement of the production of only individual subunits would open a variety of new possibilities to study their assembly mechanisms, function, or composition. We demonstrate the successful CF formation of large molecular complexes consisting of both membrane-integrated and soluble subunits by expression of the atp operon from Caldalkalibacillus thermarum strain TA2.A1 using Escherichia coli extracts. The operon comprises nine open reading frames, and the 542-kDa F(1)F(o)-ATP synthase complex is composed of 9 soluble and 16 membrane-embedded proteins in the stoichiometry alpha(3)beta(3)gammadeltavarepsilonab(2)c(13). Complete assembly into the functional complex was accomplished in all three typically used CF expression modes by (i) solubilizing initial precipitates, (ii) cotranslational insertion into detergent micelles or (iii) cotranslational insertion into preformed liposomes. The presence of all eight subunits, as well as specific enzyme activity and inhibition of the complex, was confirmed by biochemical analyses, freeze-fracture electron microscopy, and immunogold labeling. Further, single-particle analysis demonstrates that the structure and subunit organization of the CF and the reference in vivo expressed ATP synthase complexes are identical. This work establishes the production of highly complex molecular machines in defined environments either as proteomicelles or as proteoliposomes as a new application of CF expression systems.
