Abstract
Programs in biochemistry invariably encompass the principles of protein engineering. Students often display increased understanding and enthusiasm when theoretical concepts are underpinned by practical example. Herein are presented five case studies, each focusing upon a commercial protein product engineered to enhance its application-relevant functionality. The case studies may be incorporated into a standard lecture series detailing protein engineering or may form the basis of a class-led post-lecture series discussion.
