Ultrasound in phage display: a new approach to nonspecific elution

Authors: LUNDER, Mojca, BRATKOVIČ, Tomaž, URLEB, Uroš, KREFT, Samo, ŠTRUKELJ, Borut Description: A novel method for elution of peptide ligands from bacteriophage display libraries was developed by means of ultrasound in order to obtain selective peptides, eluted from target proteins.

Engineered lactic acid bacterium Lactococcus lactis capable of binding antibodies and tumor necrosis factor alpha

Authors: RAVNIKAR, Matjaž, ŠTRUKELJ, Borut, OBERMAJER, Nataša, LUNDER, Mojca, BERLEC, Aleš Destcripition: Chronic inflammatory diseases are one of the most devastating modern malformanties.Tthe main cause for imflammation is TNFalpha.In order to block te acitvity of TNFalpha, we develope the recombinant Lactoccocus lactis by means of phage display that expresses the hipervariability peptidic domain at the surface.

Cross-affinity of peptide ligands selected from phage display library against pancreatic phospholipase A2 and ammodytoxin C

Authors: GASER, Dominik, ŠTRUKELJ, Borut, BRATKOVIČ, Tomaž, KREFT, Samo, PUNGERČAR, Jože, LUNDER, Mojca Descripition: Two target proteins: ammodytoxin C and phospoholipase A2 were bound and several peptides were isolated from bacteriphage random peptide library against both proteins. The result indicates that both enzymes might have structurally similar epitopes.
