Directed evolution (DE) is a method used in protein engineering that mimics the process of natural selection to evolve proteins or nucleic acids toward a user-defined goal. It consists of subjecting a gene to iterative rounds of mutagenesis (creating a library of variants), selection (expressing the variants and isolating members with the desired function), and amplification (generating a template for the next round).
