Abstract
The design of proteins with increased stability has many important applications in biotechnology. In recent years, strategies involving directed evolution, sequence-based design, or computational design have proven successful for generating stabilized proteins. A brief overview of the various methods that have been used to increase protein stability is presented, followed by a detailed example of how the rational design of surface charge-charge interactions has provided a robust method for protein stabilization.Mesh:
