Scientists devise an algorithm to develop improved enzymes
Chemical structure for thiamine pyrophosphate and protein structure of transketolase. Thiamine pyrophosphate cofactor in yellow and xylulose 5-phosphate substrate in black. Credit: Thomas Shafee/Wikipedia Scientists have developed a prototype of a new method for ‘rationally manipulating’ enzymes to achieve better performance. They have devised an algorithm that takes into account the evolutionary history of an … Read more
