Hey, everyone. My name is John McArthur, and I am a second year graduate student in the Department of Chemistry at NC State University. My work is in the exciting field of directed evolution. My coworkers and I are working towards creating mutant enzymes with desirable functions. If you've kept in touch with the molecular biotechnology scene over the last few years, you can certainly appreciate the value of being able to discover the genetic code for custom proteins.
This blog is a place for me to review current literature in the fields of directed evolution, molecular biotechnology, and chemical biology, as well as to speculate on the future implications of modern science. I'll try to make my posts accessible to people with a casual interest in science. I hope you enjoy my blog.
