Abstract excerpt
Directed laboratory evolution is a common technique to obtain an evolved bacteria strain with a desired phenotype. This technique is especially useful as a supplement to rational engineering for complex phenotypes such as increased biocatalyst tolerance to toxic compounds. However, reverse engineering efforts are required in order to identify the mutations that occurred, including single nucleotide polymorphisms...
