The protein engineer’s toolbox is expanding and the number of successful instances of engineered protein constancy is increasing. Still, the selection of heat constancy mutations is not a standard process. Selection is complicated by lack of knowledge of the process that turns into thermal inactivation and by the fact that proteins employ a large variety of structural tricks to get constancy. %U https://sciarena.com/article/role-of-mutations-in-increasing-protein-constancy
