background: prostate cancer after lung cancer is the second cause of cancer-associated death in men. in recent years, targeted therapy of cancer has attracted researchers attention. the targeted therapy lead to decrease in side effects of drugs. studies have indicated that targeting peptides for cancer cells represent valuable tools for diagnostic and therapeutic. recently, phage display peptid...

phage-displayed random peptide libraries (rpl) provide a powerful technique for identification, structural and functional analysis of ligands for many different target molecules, including, antibodies, receptors or other proteins. this strategy has been verified to be an effective tool for research in immunology and successfully has been used to determine the target sequence for monoclonal and ...

objective: recently, phage display libraries have received enormous attention for identification and isolation of pharmaceutical molecules with diagnostic and therapeutic properties. peptide libraries are known as one of the most important and widely used types of phage display libraries. in the current study, we aimed to screen the ph.d.tm-7 phage display peptide library through biopanning for...

random peptide libraries (rpl) displayed on the surface of filamentous bacteriophages have been extensively used as a tool to map epitopes or to identify antigenic mimics (mimotpoes) of disease-specific monoclonal antibodies or polyclonal sera. these rpl are engineered by the insertion of degenerate oligonucleotides, encoding a specific number of random amino acids, in frame with a bacteriophag...

a random 12 mers phage library was used to screen a pool of immunoglo¬bulin fractions obtained from vitiligo patients. subsequent to panning experiments, a panel of affinity selected phage from vitiligo patients were obtained. this panel was tested using an elis a for their reactivity with pooled sera from patients and normal controls. among the 16 randomly selected clones, two of clones showed...

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a neuroprotectant candidate for neurodegenerative diseases. However, there are several clinical concerns about its therapeutic applications. In the current study, we selected BDNF-mimicking small peptides from phage-displayed peptide library as alternative molecules to the clinical challenges. The peptide library was screened against BDNF receptor (Ne...

An increasing number of reported cases of drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, demonstrate the urgent need for new therapeutics that are effective against such and other multi-drug resistant bacteria. Antimicrobial peptides have for two decades now been looked upon as interesting leads for development of new therapeutics combating these drug resistant microbes. High-...

BACKGROUND Amino acid sequence diversity is introduced into a phage-displayed peptide library by randomizing library oligonucleotide DNA. We recently evaluated the diversity of peptide libraries displayed on T7 lytic phage and M13 filamentous phage and showed that T7 phage can display a more diverse amino acid sequence repertoire due to differing processes of viral morphogenesis. METHODS In t...
