A continuous-exchange cell-free protein synthesis system based on extracts from cultured insect cells. [PDF]
In this study, we present a novel technique for the synthesis of complex prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins by using a continuous-exchange cell-free (CECF) protein synthesis system based on extracts from cultured insect cells.

Structure of a Pheromone Receptor-Associated MHC Molecule with an Open and Empty Groove [PDF]
Neurons in the murine vomeronasal organ (VNO) express a family of class Ib major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins (M10s) that interact with the V2R class of VNO receptors.
