CADEE: Computer-Aided Directed Evolution of Enzymes
The tremendous interest in enzymes as biocatalysts has led to extensive work in enzyme engineering, as well as associated methodology development. Here, a new framework for computer-aided directed evolution of enzymes (CADEE) is presented which allows a drastic reduction in the time necessary to prepare and analyze in silico semi-automated directed evolution of enzymes. A pedagogical example of...
متن کاملSite-Directed Mutagenesis Study
Structural elements of the rat 1.t-opioid receptor important in ligand receptor binding and selectivity were examined using a site-directed mutagenesis approach. Five single amino acid mutations were made, three that altered conserved residues in the ~ 8, and K receptors (Asn 15°t Ala, His297 to Ala, and Tyr326 to Phe) and wo de igned to test for ~i/8 selectivity (lie198 to Val and Va1202 to li...
متن کاملComputer-aided design of the stability of pyruvate formate-lyase from Escherichia coli by site-directed mutagenesis.
Using computer-aided design of single-site mutations, three amino acid residues determined by changes in folding free energy between wild-type (wt) and mutant proteins were exchanged to enhance the stability of pyruvate formate-lyase (PFL). The mutant enzymes were tested for properties such as optimum temperature, optimum pH, kinetic parameters, and stability to temperature. There were two muta...
متن کاملConstruction of a recombinant vector for site-directed mutagenesis in Salmonella typhimurium
BACKGROUND: Among all common techniques in sitedirectedmutagenesis, λ Red recombinase system has beenwidely used to knock out chromosomal genes in bacteria. In thismethod, there is always the risk of DNA Linear digestion byhost's restriction enzymes that leads to the low frequency ofrecombination. OBJECTIVES:To overcome this, we constructeda recombinant vector to disrupt phoP gene in Salmonella...
متن کاملSite-Directed Mutagenesis, Expression and Biological Activity of E. coli 5-Enolpyruvylshikimate 3-Phosphate Synthase Gene
Site-directed mutagenesis (SDM) as a powerful technique was used to change two important and conserved amino acids in 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3- phosphate synthase (EPSPS) gene of E. coli. The mutations changed glycine 96 to alanine and alanine 183 to threonine. These two amino acids are very important for intraction of the wide spectrum herbicide, glyphosate, to EPSP synthase enzymes. By design...
