Production
In the Design section, we designed StarCore sequences as compound BioBricks fusing an AMP sequence to a multimeric core. In this section, we use cell-free expression to produce StarCore proteins.
Cell-free expression allows us to bypass the toxic effect that our living cells would have if they produced our StarCore for hours but also allows us to have high throughput expression and to quickly screen many compounds.
