| Description | Protein engineering is a rapidly evolving discipline, with much research currently focused on understanding the catalysis, specificity, stability, and folding of proteins, structure-function relationships and protein design principles. Engineered proteins are now successfully being used in biotechnology and in therapeutic settings. Advances in technology and genetic and chemical techniques have enabled a competitive edge in developing improved protein and peptide based therapeutics with reduced immunogenicity, improved safety and greater effectiveness. |
