Fimbrial surface display systems in bacteria: from vaccines to random libraries.
The double membrane system of Gram-negative bacteria is an efficient barrier instrumental in maintaining a steady environment in the cytoplasm. Only a few lowmolecular-mass substances are able to cross this barrier unassisted from the cell exterior. On the other hand, the Gram-negative cell envelope also constitutes a formidable obstacle for proteins destined for the cell exterior. Gram-negativ...
متن کاملFlow cytometric screening of yeast surface display libraries.
A method to screen and isolate antigen specific clones from a library of single-chain antibodies expressed on the surface of yeast cells is presented. Two rounds of magnetic bead enrichment before flow cytometric sorting enables one to screen libraries of far greater diversity than can be screened by just flow cytometry. The strength of flow cytometric sorting is the ability to follow the selec...
متن کاملProtein secretion and surface display in Gram-positive bacteria
The cell wall peptidoglycan of Gram-positive bacteria functions as a surface organelle for the transport and assembly of proteins that interact with the environment, in particular, the tissues of an infected host. Signal peptide-bearing precursor proteins are secreted across the plasma membrane of Gram-positive bacteria. Some precursors carry C-terminal sorting signals with unique sequence moti...
متن کاملAntibody Phage Display Libraries: Contributions to Oncology
Since the advent of phage display technology, dating back to 1985, antibody libraries displayed on filamentous phage surfaces have been used to identify specific binders for many different purposes, including the recognition of tumors. Phage display represents a high-throughput technique for screening billions of random fusion antibodies against virtually any target on the surface or inside can...
