Phage display Phage display is a term describing
Phage display
• Phage display is a term describing display of foreign (poly)peptides on the surface of phage particle. This is achieved by splicing a gene encoding such a peptide into a gene encoding a capsid structural protein. • Phage Display was originally invented by George P. Smith in 1985
filamentous phage: M 13, Ffphage Smith demonstrated that fusions to the capsid protein p 3 of the non-lytic filamentous phage f 1 were fairly well tolerated by cloning a fragment of the Eco. RI restrictase gene in the middle section of the gene III.

Using recombinant DNA technology, collections of billions of peptides, protein variants, gene fragment- or c. DNA-encoded proteins presented on phage (so-called phage-displayed libraries) can be constructed and surveyed for specific affinity or activity.

phagemid Phagemids combine features of plasmids (i. e. , carry antibiotic resistance and enable replication of ds. DNA) with features of phage vectors (i. e. , allow for production and packing of ss. DNA into virions).
helper phage • Phagemids are engineered to express recombinant p 3 fusions under controlled conditions, but do not encode any viral structural or replication proteins. • Only upon superinfection of a bacterial host by a helper phage which contributes the missing genes can the phagemid ss. DNA replication and packing take place. • Helper phage are defective in their origin of replication or packaging signal thereby ensuring preferential packing of phagemids.

leucine zipper, aka leucine scissors • Each half of a leucine zipper consists of a short alpha-helix with a leucine residue at every seventh position. The standard 3. 6 -residues-per-turn alphahelix structure changes slightly to become a 3. 5 -residues-perturn alpha-helix.

• Although some success has been achieved, the use of these probes has been largely unsuccessful mainly because of their low specificity (small molecules) or limited target permeability (antibodies). • For an imaging probe to be clinically useful, it should provide a sufficient “target-to-background” ratio to maximize the “signal-to-noise” ratio or contrast in vivo. The ideal imaging compound would exhibit high binding affinity for the target, specific uptake and retention in the target, rapid clearance from nontarget tissue, adequate capillary permeability, and high stability and integrity in vivo and would be easy to prepare and safe for use.
