Design by Directed Evolution
The stunning array of features and functions exhibited by proteins in nature should convince most scientists of the power of evolutionary design processes. Natural selection acting on populations over long periods of time has generated a vast number of proteins ideally suited to their biological functions. When we try to recruit these remarkable molecular machines for new taskssfrom serving as ...
متن کاملReprogramming homing endonuclease specificity through computational design and directed evolution
Homing endonucleases (HEs) can be used to induce targeted genome modification to reduce the fitness of pathogen vectors such as the malaria-transmitting Anopheles gambiae and to correct deleterious mutations in genetic diseases. We describe the creation of an extensive set of HE variants with novel DNA cleavage specificities using an integrated experimental and computational approach. Using com...
متن کاملSynthetic gene circuits: design with directed evolution.
Synthetic circuits offer great promise for generating insights into nature's underlying design principles or forward engineering novel biotechnology applications. However, construction of these circuits is not straightforward. Synthetic circuits generally consist of components optimized to function in their natural context, not in the context of the synthetic circuit. Combining mathematical mod...
متن کاملGeneGenie: optimized oligomer design for directed evolution
GeneGenie, a new online tool available at http://www.gene-genie.org, is introduced to support the design and self-assembly of synthetic genes and constructs. GeneGenie allows for the design of oligonucleotide cohorts encoding the gene sequence optimized for expression in any suitable host through an intuitive, easy-to-use web interface. The tool ensures consistent oligomer overlapping melting t...
متن کاملDirected Evolution of Multivalent Glycopeptides Tightly Recognized by HIV Antibody 2G12
Herein, we report a method for in vitro selection of multivalent glycopeptides, combining mRNA display with incorporation of unnatural amino acids and "click" chemistry. We have demonstrated the use of this method to design potential glycopeptide vaccines against HIV. From libraries of ~10(13) glycopeptides containing multiple Man9 glycan(s), we selected variants that bind to HIV broadly neutra...
