A robotic multidimensional directed evolution approach applied to fluorescent voltage reporters.

Nature chemical biology
We developed a new way to engineer complex proteins toward multidimensional specifications using a simple, yet scalable, directed evolution strategy. By robotically picking mammalian cells that were identified, under a microscope, as expressing prote...

Development and characterization of an α-l-rhamnosidase mutant with improved thermostability and a higher efficiency for debittering orange juice.

Food chemistry
The glycoside hydrolase, α-l-rhamnosidase, could remove the bitter taste of naringin from citrus juices. However, most α-l-rhamnosidases are easily deactivated at high temperatures, limiting the practice in debittering citrus juices. The V529A mutant...

Protease engineering: Approaches, tools, and emerging trends.

Biotechnology advances
Engineered proteases with bespoke substrate specificities and activities can empower broad and innovative applications in biomedicine, mass spectrometry-based proteomics, and chemical and synthetic biology. This review provides an authoritative, topi...

Machine-learning-guided Directed Evolution for AAV Capsid Engineering.

Current pharmaceutical design
Target gene delivery is crucial to gene therapy. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) has emerged as a primary gene therapy vector due to its broad host range, long-term expression, and low pathogenicity. However, AAV vectors have some limitations, such as i...
