Rapid directed molecular evolution of fluorescent proteins in mammalian cells. [PDF]
AbstractIn vivoimaging of model organisms is heavily reliant on fluorescent proteins with high intracellular brightness. Here we describe a practical method for rapid optimization of fluorescent proteins via directed molecular evolution in cultured mammalian cells.

Directed molecular evolution to design advanced red fluorescent proteins. [PDF]
Fluorescent proteins have become indispensable imaging tools for biomedical research. Continuing progress in fluorescence imaging, however, requires probes with additional colors and properties optimized for emerging techniques. Here we summarize strategies for development of red-shifted fluorescent proteins.

Directed molecular evolution by somatic hypermutation [PDF]
After rearrangement of immunoglobulin gene segments, the immune system evolves the antibody repertoire by mutating the immunoglobulin variable region at a high rate. While this somatic hypermutation was thought to occur only at the variable region, recent studies suggest that hypermutation can occur at locations throughout the genome.

Directed molecular evolution of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase [PDF]
ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase catalyzes a rate-limiting reaction in prokaryotic glycogen and plant starch biosynthesis. Despite sharing similar molecular size and catalytic and allosteric regulatory properties, the prokaryotic and higher plant enzymes differ in higher-order protein structure.

Directed molecular evolution reveals Gaussia luciferase variants with enhanced light output stability. [PDF]
Gaussia Luciferase (Gluc) has proven to be a powerful mammalian cell reporter for monitoring numerous biological processes in immunology, virology, oncology, and neuroscience. Current limitations of Gluc as a reporter include its emission of blue light, which is absorbed by mammalian tissues, limiting its use in vivo, and a flash-type bioluminescence ...
