Disclosed are a preparation containing cell extracts for cell-free protein synthesis, prepared by excluding from a living organism a system, participating to inhibiting of self protein synthesis reaction, an apparatus for cell-free protein synthesis reaction equipped with a reaction tank for cell-free protein synthesis, and a kit for use therefor; the preparation can be stored at room temperature and prepared as a preparation in a state where biological functions of the cell extracts are maintained, and further, disclosed is methods for cell-free protein synthesis comprising providing cell extracts from which an inhibitor for self protein synthesis reaction is substantially excluded, having introduced therein treatment selected from supplement, storage, exchange or discharge with respect to an element selected from at least mRNA serving as a template for synthesis reaction, an energy reproduction system enzyme, a substrate, and an energy source. |
