Abstract excerpt
Recent progress in DNA synthesis and sequencing technology has enabled systematic studies of protein function at a massive scale. We explore a deep mutational scanning study that measured the transcriptional repression function of 43,669 variants of the Escherichia coli LacI protein. We analyze structural and evolutionary aspects that relate to how the function of this protein is maintained, including an in-depth...
