20120165228 | EVOLVING NEW MOLECULAR FUNCTION - Nature evolves biological molecules such as proteins through iterated rounds of diversification, selection, and amplification. The present invention provides methods, compositions, and systems for synthesizing, selecting, amplifying, and evolving non-natural molecules based on nucleic acid templates. The sequence of a nucleic acid template is used to direct the synthesis of non-natural molecules such as unnatural polymers and small molecules. Using this method combinatorial libraries of these molecules can be prepared and screened. Upon selection of a molecule, its encoding nucleic acid template may be amplified and/or evolved to yield the same molecule or related molecules for re-screening. The inventive methods and compositions of the present invention allow for the amplification and evolution of non-natural molecules in a manner analogous to the amplification of natural biopolymer such as polynucleotides and protein. | 06-28-2012 |

20090263851 | IN VIVO SELECTION SYSTEM FOR ENZYME ACTIVITY - The present invention provides in vivo systems in which activity of a biological cleavage enzyme, such as a site-specific recombinase, a homing endonuclease, or an intein, is linked to cell viability and therefore can be selected. The invention further provides methods of making cells in which the activity of a biological cleavage enzyme is linked to viability, as well as methods of identifying new biological cleavage enzymes, including enzymes having altered site specificity, using such cells. | 10-22-2009 |
