Directed evolution optimizes protein function by the successive generations of random mutation, artificial selection or screening. This simple design algorithm circumvents our ignorance of how ...
Nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) are polymers of nucleotides – each nucleotide consists of a pentose sugar, a phosphate group and one of the nitrogenous bases (purines and pyrimidines). Nucleic acids ...
KRAS mutations at codon 12 induce profound metabolic changes in colorectal cancer cells. These oncogenic mutations promote ...
