In vitm evolution is anew, important laboratory method (in V&V) to evolve molecules with desired properties. It has been used in a variety of biological studies and drug development. Iu this paper, we study one important experimeutd method used in in vitro evolution experiments called DNA shuB. ling. We construct a mathematical model for DNA shufEl. ing and study the progress of DNA &ufEng experiments based on this model. The model consists of two parts. First we apply the Lander-Waterman model for physical mapping by fingerprinting random clones to model the distribution of regions that can be reassembled through DNA shuflling. Then we present a model for recombination between different DNA species with diikent mutations. We compare our theoretical results with experimental results and find perfect fit for the theoretical predictions with the experimental results. Finally we propose novel applications of the theoretical results to physical mapping using DNA shu. iBing. This model should be useful for the design of DNA shui% iug experiments and the design of in vitro evolution experiments using DNA shuffling as mutagenesis techniques.
