1. A method of producing a biomolecule comprising:
a) contacting a Vibrio natriegens organism with a vector and introducing the vector into the Vibrio natriegens organism, wherein the vector comprises a heterologous nucleic acid encoding the biomolecule, wherein the Vibrio natriegens organism comprises a recombinant nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a T7 RNA polymerase and a recombinant regulatory element 5′ to the nucleotide sequence encoding the T7 RNA polymerase that regulates expression of the T7 RNA polymerase, and wherein the recombinant regulatory element comprises a ribosome binding site having at least 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 8;
b) expressing the heterologous nucleic acid in a cell-free extract of the Vibrio natriegens organism, thereby producing the biomolecule; and
c) isolating the biomolecule.
