A simple, rapid, in vitro cell-free protein expression system, Expressway NMR, is introduced and used to express the small ubiquitin-related modifier protein SUMO-1. This 12 kDa molecule is challenging for NMR as it has limited solubility and requires relatively high salt (200 mM) for stability in solution. Starting with the gene, the cell-free system, and milligram amounts of nitrogen-15 isotopically enriched amino acids, sufficient protein is produced in 4 h to obtain a high-resolution 2D HSQC spectrum of the protein in 40 min. This time would be closer to 10 min with the aid of a higher sensitivity salt-tolerant cryogenic NMR probe. With all protein purification steps included, and aggressive data processing using the filter diagonalization method (FDM), it is but 6 h from gene to heteronuclear single quantum coherence (HSQC). As the cell-free system is nearly background-free, it is also possible to work with the crude reaction mixture, in which case only a total of 5 h is required. Sample stability over time, whether crude extract or purified, was notable, with no significant change in the 15N-1H HSQC spectrum over 6 months at 4 degrees C (300 muM, pH 6.1, capped NMR tube). The combination of a turnkey, high-yield, protease-free in vitro protein expression system, an optimized sensitivity-enhanced HSQC pulse sequence, and FDM processing makes this scheme an attractive first step to rapidly assess the suitability of proteins for complete solution structure determination.
