Disclosed are compositions, methods, and kits for performing cell-free RNA transcription and/or cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS). The disclosed compositions, methods, and kits include or utilize components prepared from a species of Clostridia such as cellular extracts from

Cell-free protein synthesis platforms derived from clostridia extracts

The disclosure provides genetically engineered microorganisms and methods for improved biological production of ethylene glycol and precursors of ethylene glycol. The microorganism of the disclosure produces ethylene glycol or a precursor of ethylene glycol through one or more of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate, oxaloacetate, citrate, malate, and glycine. The disclosure further provides compositions comprising ethylene glycol or polymers of ethylene glycol such as polyethylene terephthalate.

Microorganisms and methods for improved biological production of ethylene glycol

The disclosure relates to the combination of a primary fermentation that converts gas to acetate with a secondary fermentation that converts acetate to a target product. Preferably, the gas contains carbon dioxide, such that the disclosure enables the fixation of carbon dioxide into useful products. The fermentations may be any combination of aerobic and anaerobic, batch and continuous. The fermenting microorganisms may typically be bacterial or fungal.
