Sumario:[EN] Directed evolution is a powerful strategy to tailor enzymes with improved attributes. The use of laboratory evolution is becoming more refined, whereby computational and experimental approaches are being combined so that more effective libraries can be created, producing enzymes with greater biotechnological potential while notably reducing the demands on screening. This chapter summarizes the most recent findings from our laboratory to tailor fungal high-redox potential laccases by bringing together computational approaches with in vitro and in vivo methods for library creation. We focus on four recent case studies of laccase engineering in which different computational algorithms were applied at both the gene and protein levels.
