Leishmania tarentolae extract (LTE) Cell-Free Technology is a novel in vitro protein production system developed in the group of Prof. Kirill Alexandrov at the Institute for Molecular Biosciences of the University of Queensland. The system is based on the translation competent extracts of protozoan L. tarentolae.

How it works:

The system is remarkably simple and allows single step production of recombinant protein from either plasmid or PCR-generated templates. The LTE technology enables production difficult-to-express proteins rapidly and in a multiplexed format. PEF supplies bulk LTE lysate and provides template design and cloning service. Custom expression of genes in cell-free system can also be performed.
