15X Salt Solution can be used in making cell-free protein expression components. It contains 150 mM magnesium glutamate, 150mM ammonium glutamate and 2M potassium glutamate.
Potassium stabilizes folded proteins.
Magnesium is a cofactor in many enzymes and ribozymes.
Ammonium has been used as a component of cell-free protein synthesis reactions and is a good source of nitrogen.
Glutamate has empirically been shown to be an optimal counter-ion in cell-free reactions.
