Crystallographic and Genetic Approaches Toward the Design of Proteins of Enhanced Thermostability

  • Chapter
Book cover Crystallographic and Modeling Methods in Molecular Design

Abstract

The advent of directed mutagenesis has made it possible to alter protein structures at will. For the first time it is possible to design and to introduce modifications into a protein that are intended to change its behavior in predictable ways.
