Methodology for optimizing functional miniature proteins based on avian pancreatic polypeptide using phage display

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2001 Jun 18;11(12):1501-5. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(01)00139-1.

Abstract

Synthetic genes for avian pancreatic polypeptide (aPP) and for the miniature DNA binding protein PPBR4 were cloned and expressed on the surface of M13 bacteriophage. We anticipate that these constructs will have utility optimizing the properties of miniature proteins based on aPP that result from our previously described protein grafting procedure.
