Directed evolution of a transcription factor PbrR to improve lead selectivity and reduce zinc interference through dual selection

Abstract Directed evolution has been proven as a powerful tool for developing proteins and strains with novel or enhanced features. In this study, a dual selection system was designed to tune the binding specificity of a transcription factor to a particular ligand with the ampicillin resistance gene...
