  • Patent number: 6444468
    Abstract: A method for DNA reassembly after random fragmentation, and its application to mutagenesis of nucleic acid sequences by in vitro or in vivo recombination is described. In particular, a method for the production of nucleic acid fragments or polynucleotides encoding mutant proteins is described. The present invention also relates to a method of repeated cycles of mutagenesis, shuffling and selection which allow for the directed molecular evolution in vitro or in vivo of proteins.

  • Patent number: 5830721
    Abstract: A method for generating libraries of displayed peptides and/or antibodies (Abs) suitable for affinity interaction screening or phenotypic screening comprising: (i) obtaining selected library members comprising a displayed peptide and/or Ab and the corressponding polynucleotide (PN), or copies of it, (ii) pooling and fragmenting the PN, or copies of it, to form fragments, (iii) performing PCR amplification and thereby homologously recombining the fragments to form a shuffled pool of recombined PNs, which are not present in the selected library of (i).
