Abstract excerpt
We study theoretically the in vitro evolution of a DNA sequence by binding to a transcription factor. Using a simple model of protein-DNA binding and available binding constants for the Mnt protein, we perform large-scale, realistic simulations of evolution starting from a single DNA sequence. Varying the evolution parameters reveals three different regimes characterized by distinct evolutionary behaviors, and...
