Enzyme (re)design: lessons from natural evolution and
computation
John A Gerlt1 and Patricia C Babbitt
"Aggressive enzyme engineering". Instead of making small changes, tear off massive chunks of the protein and add on new loops.
Use computers (RosettaMatch) to work out what loops will work well on what scaffold.
Follow it with directed evolution to optimise function.
