[0011] Detailed Description Cell-free polypeptide synthesis (CFPS) is a platform technology that uses crude cell extracts to rapidly and reliably synthesize desired polypeptide products. This crude cell extract is the starting point of the cell-free reaction because it utilizes the endogenous machinery that allows polypeptide translation (and, if necessary, mRNA transcription) to generate polypeptide and protein products from nucleic acid templates (e.g., plasmid or linear DNA) and supplemented nucleotides, amino acids, energy sources, and other necessary cofactors. CFPS has many potential advantages over cell expression, including faster expression timelines, the freedom to customize expression conditions, and avoiding the need to generate unique cell lines for each synthesized polypeptide or protein by direct addition of linear or plasmid DNA templates.
[0012] However, cell-free extract preparation methods are time-consuming and laborious. In the CFPS field, much effort has been devoted to streamlining extract preparation, which generally consists of cell growth, cell harvesting, cell lysis, and post-lysis processing. Manufacturing-scale polypeptide or protein synthesis may use alternative methods of post-lysis processing that reduce energy costs and washing while maintaining high protein yields. Post-lysis clarification typically relies on centrifugation. Many reports describe attempts to lower the power demands of the post-lysis centrifugation step (e.g., lower speeds and / or lower spins). For example, operation times for clarifying cell lysates using a centrifuge can range from about 30 minutes to 24 hours. Additional time is required to clean the centrifugation equipment (e.g., up to 48 hours of washing time at large scale). Depending on the scale, centrifugation equipment can cost $10,000 to $1,000,000 to purchase, and annual operating costs can be $50,000 to $200,000. Centrifugation used for high-speed post-lysis processing generally requires expensive and reusable stainless steel equipment with risk of cross-contamination, and requires very time-consuming cleaning validation for use on many products, especially those made under GMP conditions. Thus, the need for centrifugation makes post-lysis processing incompatible with disposable manufacturing methods, which are very versatile, do not have risk of cross-contamination, and are currently standard in the biopharmaceutical industry. Centrifugation can also be difficult to implement in high-throughput formats (e.g., multi-well plates) for high-throughput extract production. Processes that replace the centrifugation step with another clarification method during extract preparation may produce proteins at lower cost and / or in less time per gram, while the titers of proteins produced using the improved extraction method may be comparable. The improved process can be implemented in resource-limited environments, for high-throughput extract production, with less investment, and in existing or new disposable manufacturing environments.
[0013] Thus, there remains a need for scaled-up CFPS systems and methods that can prepare cell extracts efficiently and inexpensively, with reduced time and equipment costs, and that can be implemented in resource-limited or disposable manufacturing environments.
[0014] The present disclosure employs, unless otherwise indicated, conventional molecular biology techniques that are within the skill of the art.

[0024] Cell-free polypeptide synthesis (CFPS) is a platform technology that uses crude cell extracts to rapidly and reliably synthesize desired polypeptide or protein products. CFPS utilizes the cell's endogenous machinery and / or supplemented nucleotides, amino acids, energy sources, and other necessary cofactors to transcribe and translate mRNA from a nucleic acid template (e.g., a plasmid or linear DNA).
[0025] As illustrated in FIG. 1, existing cell-free extract-based CFPS methods (top panel) include the following steps: cell culture or cell growth, cell harvesting by centrifugation, cell lysis by homogenization, cell lysate clarification by centrifugation, and CFPS using cell-free extract clarified via centrifugation. Post-lysis clarification processes usually rely on centrifugation, which can require long operation times and substantial costs for equipment such as centrifuges. The clarification step is intended to remove whole cells, cell debris, and extraneous materials present in the cell lysate that may interfere with the ability of the extract to generate the desired polypeptide or protein product specifically and in high yield and high quality (including post-translational modification, folding, and limited proteolysis), as well as the reproducibility, low bioburden, and material properties of the extract, without requiring CFPS. There is a need for a post-lysis processing method that replaces the centrifugation step with one that can reduce both the time and cost of CFPS and can be performed in a resource-limited or disposable manufacturing environment. Disclosed herein are methods and systems for CFPS using cell extract clarified via filtration.

[0098] Working Example The following examples are presented for the purpose of illustrating various embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not meant to limit the present disclosure in any manner. The examples, together with the methods described herein, are representative of currently preferred embodiments, are illustrative, and are not intended as limitations on the scope of the present disclosure. Modifications therein and other uses encompassed within the spirit of the present disclosure, as defined by the scope of the claims, will occur to those skilled in the art.
[0099] Example 1: Cell-free polypeptide synthesis using cell lysate clarified via filtration This example illustrates a method for preparing a crude cell extract clarified via filtration instead of the traditional method of clarification via centrifugation. This example clearly shows that the clarification method via filtration results in substantial yields of protein produced from a cell-free synthesis reaction.
[0100] Cells were cultured, harvested, and lysed according to conventional methods as illustrated in FIG. 1. Cell-free polypeptide synthesis results were compared between cell extracts clarified via centrifugation and clarified via filtration. The cell extracts were clarified via centrifugation to produce E. coli extracts as previously reported in the E. coli extract preparation protocol. The cell extracts clarified via filtration were prepared according to the process illustrated in FIG. 2. Briefly, a peristaltic pump was used to drive the flow of the cell extract through the filtration media. The homogenized cell lysate was filtered through a first depth filter (15 μm to 0.5 μm) to produce a first clarified cell lysate. The first clarified cell lysate was then filtered through a second depth filter (0.5 μm to 0.2 μm) to produce a second clarified cell lysate. Finally, the second clarified cell lysate was filtered through a sterile filter (0.2 μm) to generate a clarified cell extract for the cell-free polypeptide synthesis reaction.
[0101] The cell extracts clarified via centrifugation and via filtration were then used for cell-free polypeptide synthesis based on the process illustrated in Figure 3. A DNA template encoding superfolder green fluorescent protein (sfGFP) was added to both the cell extracts clarified via centrifugation and via filtration. The sfGFP DNA contained a T7 promoter and a strong ribosome binding site at the 5' end of the coding sequence of sfGFP, and a T7 terminator at the 3' end of the coding sequence of sfGFP. The T7 promoter sequence was SEQ ID NO:1, and the T7 terminator sequence was SEQ ID NO:2. These regulatory elements ensured high levels of transcription and translation within the complex extract environment.
[0102] As shown in FIG. 4, protein yields from cell extracts clarified via filtration were comparable to those from cell extracts clarified via centrifugation, as clearly demonstrated by the synthesis of sfGFP.
[0103] Example 2: Effect of filter pore size on protein yield of CFPS This example illustrates the effect of filter pore size on the cell extract clarified via filtration and protein produced from CFPS using the filtered cell extract.
[0104] Filters with a range of pore sizes, 12-10 microns, 5 microns, 1.2 microns, 3 microns / 0.2 microns, and 0.2 microns, as illustrated in FIG. 5 and listed in Table 1, were used to filter the cell lysates and evaluate their effect on the clarified cell extract activity and overall tolerability of CFPS. When compared to the current state of the art method for clarification of cell lysates via centrifugation, filtration caused a decrease in cell-free polypeptide synthesis yield, but was still tolerable. The cell extract activity was related to its host cell protein concentration and optical density. As the filter pore size used in the filtration process decreased, the host cell protein concentration also decreased (lines displayed as % relative [protein] (relative protein percentage)). Table 1 [Table 1] Table 1: Protein concentration and OD under different clarification methods. 600 , and the relative protein percentage (Relative [Protein] (%)) values The results, as listed in Table 1, showed that the filters captured host cell proteins, some of which could be utilized for CFPS. Similarly, the optical density readings (OD 600 ) also decreased with decreasing pore size (OD 600 (line labeled with ). This indicates further and better clarification. These two variables, extract protein concentration and degree of extract clarification, need to be balanced to produce a fully functional cell extract. Comparison of the activity of cell extracts prepared using 3 micron / 0.2 micron filters and 0.2 micron filters showed that depth filtration trains down to 0.2 micron pore size help retain some of those host cell proteins useful for CFPS while achieving similar levels of clarification.
[0105] Example 3: Effect of filter pore size on throughput and mean flow rate for CFPS This example illustrates the effect of filter pore size on the parameters of throughput and average flow rate during the lysate clarification process.
[0106] Throughput (i.e., volume of lysate filtered per filter surface area) and average filtrate flow rate (i.e., volume of lysate filtered per filter surface area per time) are two parameters of the filtration-mediated clarification process of cell lysate that could be used to optimize the filtration process. The following filters were used: 12-10 micron, 1.2 micron, 3 micron / 0.2 micron, 0.2 micron.
[0107] As illustrated in FIG. 6 and listed in Table 2, the throughput and average flow rates were measured in a series of filtration processes using various filter pore sizes. Table 2 [Table 2] Table 2: Throughput and average flow rates for clarification methods using filters of different pore sizes. The driving force used during the filtration process was centrifugal force as opposed to pressure, which was monitored. This may explain the discrepancy between the throughput of the 12-10 micron and 5 micron filter trains, since the 12-10 micron filters would be expected to have a greater or similar throughput to the 5 micron filters given their relatively large pore size. The average flow rate decreased as the pore size of the filters decreased, as would be expected. The throughput of the 3 micron / 0.2 micron depth filter was greater than that of the 1.2 micron filter, despite the fact that the 3 micron / 0.2 micron filter ultimately had the ability to extrude through the smaller pore size and produce a better clarified extract. The 3 micron / 0.2 micron depth filter also had a greater throughput than the 0.2 micron filter alone. This indicated that depth filters or filter trains with successively smaller holes could not only produce a more productive extract with a similar degree of clarification, but also a more efficient process that required less time or filter area, thus lowering operating costs.
[0108] Example 4: Effect of Filtration Train on CFPS This example illustrates the effect of filter type and filter pore size on CFPS.
[0109] To evaluate depth filtration trains, various depth filters, membrane filters, and combinations thereof into a filter train were used for clarification of cell lysates for CFPS to evaluate their efficiency in the extract clarification process. The filters used in this example included the depth filters 0.2-3.0 microns, 0.4-15.0 microns, 6.0-30.0 microns, 0.2-0.8 microns, 0.1-0.3 microns, 0.2-0.5 microns, as well as several membrane filters with PES or PES hybrid media.
[0110] For the purposes of lysate clarification, throughput and average constant filtrate flow rate were considered appropriate metrics. In optimizing these metrics, a train of two 0.4-15 micron depth filters followed by a 0.2-0.5 micron depth filter was found to have the highest throughput and the highest average constant filtrate flow rate. This train was found to be better than a 2× 0.2-0.8 micron train, a 2× 0.2-3.0 micron train to a 0.1-0.3 micron train, and a 6-30 micron to 0.2-3.0 micron train. Various membrane filters were tested along with the selected depth filtration train, and a PES filter was found to have the highest throughput. That throughput metric was rigorously examined for scale-up purposes.
[0111] A modified version of the final filter train was used to confirm the retained extract activity after the lysate clarification process. The modified filter train included one 0.4-15 micron filter, followed by 0.2-0.5 micron and 0.2 micron PES membrane filters. Protein yields of cell-free extracts filtered using the modified filter train, as discussed in Example 1 above, are illustrated in FIG. 4.
