Abstract excerpt
De novo biocatalysts have been successfully generated by computational design and subsequent experimental optimization. Here, we examined the evolutionary history of the computationally designed (retro-)aldolase RA95. The modest activity of the starting enzyme was previously improved 105-fold over many rounds of mutagenesis and screening to afford a proficient biocatalyst for enantioselective cleavage and...
