Statistics of protein library construction.
SUMMARY: We have investigated the statistics associated with constructing and sampling large protein-encoding libraries. Using fairly simple statistics we have written algorithms for estimating the diversity in libraries generated by the most commonly used protocols, including error-prone PCR, DNA shuffling, StEP PCR, oligonucleotide-directed randomization, MAX randomization, synthetic shuffling, DHR, ADO and SISDC. AVAILABILITY: Web interface and C++ source code available at http://guinevere.otago.ac.nz/stats.html. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Complete mathematical notes, model assumptions and justification, users' guide and worked examples at above website.[1]References
