Molecular breeding of carotenoid biosynthetic pathways by Schmidt-Dannert et al. <biblio> #Tsien pmid=7809066 </biblio>

[http://docs.google.com/present/edit?id=0AeGtz3V56Y9xZGRtOGc0dm1fMTIxMWM1eGRrdGZy&hl=en Presentation] by Greg

Learned about targeted evolution, family planning, and molecular breeding in the context of the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway. Tools such as these can be use to create a mutant protein of choice without undergoing the rigor of silent mutations.
