Workflow Stage Observations

Stage 1library buildSource 1DOI

mutation generation by retron-based recombineering

Selection basis: Broad exploration of fitness landscapes by introducing point mutations, insertions, and deletions.

Enriches for: sequence diversity, fitness landscape exploration

Stage 2selectionSource 1DOI

dynamic opposing selection

Selection basis: Opposing selection pressures were applied to enhance activity and switchability of phage-encoded effectors.

Higher fidelity: yes

Enriches for: activity, switchability

Preserves downstream axes: allosteric switching behavior

Stage 3sequencing readoutsequencingSource 1DOI

long-read sequencing across selection cycles

Selection basis: High-resolution tracking of evolving variant pools to reveal adaptive trajectories and context-dependent residue interactions.

Higher fidelity: yes

Enriches for: trajectory resolution, variant pool tracking
