Abstract excerpt
Directed evolution is a method for engineering biological systems or components, such as proteins, wherein desired traits are optimised through iterative rounds of mutagenesis and selection of fit variants. The process of protein directed evolution can be envisaged as navigation over high-dimensional optimisation landscapes with numerous local maxima. The performance of any strategy in navigating such a landscape...
