Probing the Specificity of Human Myeloma Proteins with a Random Peptide Phage Library

Development of antiangiogenin peptide using a phage-displayed peptide library.

Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and metastasis. Here, we have developed a peptide antagonist of human angiogenin, which is a potent and tumor-associated angiogenic factor. ANI-E peptide was derived from the phage clone, which binds to angiogenin via the disulfide-constrained octapeptide epitope that is displayed on its surface, and is displaced by actin. Disulfide-constrained ANI-E p...

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...

Probing ADAMTS13 Substrate Specificity using Phage Display

Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a large, multimeric protein that regulates hemostasis by tethering platelets to the subendothelial matrix at sites of vascular damage. The procoagulant activity of plasma VWF correlates with the length of VWF multimers, which is proteolytically controlled by the metalloprotease ADAMTS13. To probe ADAMTS13 substrate specificity, we created phage display libraries c...

screening phage display library for isolation of human colon cancer cell-binding peptide ligands

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...
