The weak functions of these enzymes on a range of non-native substrates can be improved by a few mutations while the natural function remains largely unaffected.

They find that beneficial mutations can occur both in and distant from the active site, but that active site mutations are more likely to lead to large improvements.

Liu Discovery and directed evolution of a glyphosate tolerance gene Science 304 2004 1151 1154 In a remarkably successful application of directed evolution, the authors use eleven rounds of random mutagenesis and DNA shuffling to improve the activity of an enzyme that confers resistance to the herbicide glyphosate by four orders of magnitude. They demonstrate that the engineered enzyme can confer herbicide resistance on a range of hosts.
