GENERATION OF DIVERSITY IN COMBINATORIAL LIBRARIES

摘要

The invention concerns gene banks and combinatorial derivatives thereof, prepared using phagemid- or phage-display in combination with type IIS restriction enzymes and cosmid packaging; their use for the isolation of ligands, including enzyme inhibitors, agonists and antagonists for receptors, competitive binding peptides to a defined target, diagnostic ligands for diseases and autoimmune syndromes, including surveillance tools for immune status, post-translationally modified peptides, and such ligands generated by this technology.
