Novel Zn 2+ -Chelating Peptides Selected from a Fimbria-Displayed Random Peptide Library

Novel Zn(2+)-chelating peptides selected from a fimbria-displayed random peptide library.

The display of peptide sequences on the surface of bacteria is a technology that offers exciting applications in biotechnology and medical research. Type 1 fimbriae are surface organelles of Escherichia coli which mediate D-mannose-sensitive binding to different host surfaces by virtue of the FimH adhesin. FimH is a component of the fimbrial organelle that can accommodate and display a diverse ...

Antibody and Antigen Binding Peptides Using a Phage Displayed Random Peptide Library

Identification of high-affinity VEGFR3-binding peptides through a phage-displayed random peptide library

OBJECTIVE Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) interaction with its receptor, VEGFR-3/Flt-4, regulates lymphangiogenesis. VEGFR-3/Flt-4 expression in cancer cells has been correlated with clinical stage, lymph node metastasis, and lymphatic invasion. The objective of this study is to identify a VEGFR-3/Flt-4-interacting peptide that could be used to inhibit VEGFR-3 for ovarian cancer thera...

Puzzling Peptides from a Phage Display Library

The commercial availability of random peptide libraries displayed on the M13 phage is increasing their use forstudies on epitope identification, enzyme inhibitors, receptor ligands, etc. In this study two experimentswhere planned for selection of peptides. First with sheep antibodies, the positive selector was IgG, preparedon Protein G column from a pool of 11 sheeps immunized...
