Abstract excerpt
Deep mutational scanning is a method for protein engineering. Here, we applied it to alter the ligand specificity of the transcriptional regulator XylS from Pseudomonas putida to recognize p-toluic acid instead of the native ligand m-toluic acid. For this purpose, we used an antibiotic resistance gene-based dual screening system, which was constructed for the directed evolution of XylS toward the above-mentioned...
