Abstract excerpt
Restriction endonucleases are widely used in laboratory applications from recombinant DNA technology to diagnostics, but engineering of restriction enzymes by structure-guided design and in vivo directed evolution is at an early stage. Here, we report the use of an in vitro compartmentalization system for completely in vitro selection of restriction enzymes. Compartmentalization of a single gene in a rabbit...
