Cell-free expression systems provide an open platform to develop functional aspects of synthetic gene constructs. In this work, we established chemical communication via quorum sensing autoinducer molecules between bacteria and a cell-free expression system. Furthermore, we optimized the expression of a RNA-protein hybrid structure in a cell-free expression system. The RNA structure combined functional aspects such as scaffolding of a protein-based FRET pair and binding to streptavidin coated beads. Finally, we studied the reversibility of CRISPR interference induced filamentation of E. coli bacteria.
