This is an ABSTRACT ONLY.A number of molecular biology techniques are available to generate variants from a particular start gene for eventual protein expression. The authors discuss the basic principles of these methods in a repertoire that may be used to achieve the elemental steps in protein engineering. These include site-directed, deletion and insertion mutagenesis. They provide detailed case studies, drawn from their own experiences, packaged together with conceptual discussions and include an analysis of the techniques presented with regards to their uses in protein engineering.enMolecular biologyMolecular biology methodsProtein engineeringProtein expressionProtein expression methodsMutagenesisSite-directed mutagenesisInsertion mutagenesisDeletion mutagenesisPolymerase chain reactionMolecular cloningRecombinant protein expressionRecombinant plasmidA discussion of molecular biology methods for protein engineeringArticleZawaira, A., Pooran, A., Barichievy, S., & Chopera, D.
