Optimizing bioconversion pathways through systems analysis and metabolic engineering.
We demonstrate a general approach for metabolic engineering of biocatalytic systems comprising the uses of a chemostat for strain improvement and radioisotopic tracers for the quantification of pathway fluxes. Flux determination allows the identification of target pathways for modification as validated by subsequent overexpression of the corresponding gene. We demonstrate this method in the ind...
متن کاملOptimizing the search algorithm for protein engineering by directed evolution.
An in silico protein model based on the Kauffman NK-landscape, where N is the number of variable positions in a protein and K is the degree of coupling between variable positions, was used to compare alternative search strategies for directed evolution. A simple genetic algorithm (GA) was used to model the performance of a standard DNA shuffling protocol. The search effectiveness of the GA was ...
متن کاملUnderstanding the behaviour of distributed applications through reverse engineering
Understanding the behaviour of distributed applications is a very challenging task, due to their complexity. The top-down use of suitable abstraction hierarchies is frequently proposed to manage this complexity. Given the size of distributed applications, manually deriving such abstraction hierarchies seems unrealistic. This paper discusses tools that automate the derivation of suitable abstrac...
متن کاملRational Engineering of Enzyme Allosteric Regulation through Sequence Evolution Analysis
Control of enzyme allosteric regulation is required to drive metabolic flux toward desired levels. Although the three-dimensional (3D) structures of many enzyme-ligand complexes are available, it is still difficult to rationally engineer an allosterically regulatable enzyme without decreasing its catalytic activity. Here, we describe an effective strategy to deregulate the allosteric inhibition...
متن کاملMultifunctional materials through modular protein engineering.
The diversity of potential applications for protein-engineered materials has undergone profound recent expansion through a rapid increase in the library of domains that have been utilized in these materials. Historically, protein-engineered biomaterials have been generated from a handful of peptides that were selected and exploited for their naturally evolved functionalities. In recent years, t...
