Abstract excerpt
The thermostability of the conger eel galectin, congerin II, was improved by in vitro evolutionary protein engineering. Two rounds of random PCR mutagenesis and selection experiments increased the congerin II thermostability to a level comparative to its naturally thermostable isoform, congerin I...
