Abstract
The efficient application of biocatalysts requires the availability of suitable enzymes with high activity and stability under process conditions, desired substrate selectivity and high enantioselectivity. However, wild-type enzymes often need to be optimized to fulfill these requirements. Two rather contradictory tools can be used on a molecular level to create tailor-made biocatalysts: directed evolution and rational protein design.Mesh:
