Abstract excerpt
Proteins have evolved to balance efficient binding of desired partners with rejection of unwanted interactions. To investigate the evolution of protein-protein interactions, we selected a random library of pre-stabilized TEM1 β-lactamase against wild-type TEM1 using yeast surface display. Three mutations were sufficient to achieve micromolar affinity binding between the two. The X-ray structure emphasized that...
