Cell-free circuit breadboard
The following protocols are available for the cell-free circuit breadboard:
- Reaction Preparation - Cell-free expression of circuits from linear or plasmid DNA
- TXTL template, v2.3 - TXTL spreadsheet for designing experiments
We are the in the process of publishing a paper in the Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE) that describes this protocol in much more detail. The JoVE paper will be an open access paper. If you would like a preprint, contact Richard Murray.
Cost estimate
The cell-free circuit breadboard costs approximately 2.64 cents per uL, or 31.7 cents per 12 uL reaction. The cost distribution is shown in the table below.
Component | Material price per
μL of reaction |
Labor price per
