چکیده

Synthetic genes for avian pancreatic polypeptide (aPP) and for the miniature DNA binding protein PPBR4 were cloned and expressed on the surface of M13 bacteriophage. We anticipate that these constructs will have utility optimizing the properties of miniature proteins based on aPP that result from our previously described protein grafting procedure.

Molecular recognition of protein surfaces: high affinity ligands for the CBP KIX domain.

Potent and specific inhibitors of protein.protein interactions have potential both as therapeutic compounds and biological tools, yet discovery of such molecules remains a challenge. Our laboratory has recently described a strategy, called protein grafting, for the identification of miniature proteins that bind protein surfaces with high affinity and specificity and inhibit the formation of pro...

Design and Evolution of a Miniature Bcl-2 Binding Protein**

The design of molecules that bind protein surfaces with nanomolar affinity and high specificity presents a major challenge for chemical biologists.[1] Molecules that possess these properties have potential as therapeutic leads for protein targets[2] and new tools for proteome research.[3] We have described a general strategy for the design of miniature ahelical proteins[4] that bind DNA with hi...

Phage Display on the Base of Filamentous Bacteriophages: Application for Recombinant Antibodies Selection

The display of peptides and proteins on the surface of filamentous bacteriophage is a powerful methodology for selection of peptides and protein domains, including antibodies. An advantage of this methodology is the direct physical link between the phenotype and the genotype, as an analyzed polypeptide and its encoding DNA fragment exist in one phage particle. Development of phage display antib...

Nanobody as a new generation of functional proteins

Nanobody (Nb) or VHH is the smallest binding domain of camelid heavy chain antibody (HcAb). Light chains of HcAb naturally removed and because of some evolutionary changes, Nbs have unique properties rather than conventional antibodies. The size of Nb is about one-tenth (0.1) of whole antibodies and this size improved some problems of four chains antibodies such as high yield of expression in p...

Efficient method to optimize antibodies using avian leukosis virus display and eukaryotic cells.

Antibody-based therapeutics have now had success in the clinic. The affinity and specificity of the antibody for the target ligand determines the specificity of therapeutic delivery and off-target side effects. The discovery and optimization of high-affinity antibodies to important therapeutic targets could be significantly improved by the availability of a robust, eukaryotic display technology...
