Epitope mapping using mRNA display and a unidirectional nested deletion library [PDF]
In vitro selection targeting an anti-polyhistidine monoclonal antibody was performed using mRNA display with a random, unconstrained 27-mer peptide library.

MHC-independent αβTCRs (TCRs) recognize conformational epitopes on native self-proteins and arise in mice lacking both MHC and CD4/CD8 coreceptor proteins. Although naturally generated in the thymus, these TCRs resemble re-engineered therapeutic chimeric

A Population Dynamics Model for Clonal Diversity in a Germinal Center
Germinal centers (GCs) are micro-domains where B cells mature to develop high affinity antibodies. Inside a GC, B cells compete for antigen and T cell help, and the successful ones continue to evolve.

Improved Clonal Selection Algorithm Based on Biological Forgetting Mechanism
The antibody candidate set generated by the clonal selection algorithm has only a small number of antibodies with high antigen affinity to obtain high-frequency mutations.

Semantic media decision taking using N3Logic [PDF]
In this paper, we introduce a media decision taking engine (MDTE), enabling the automatic selection and/or rating of multimedia content versions, based on the available context information.

A variety of B cell clones seed the germinal centers, where a selection stringency expands the fitter clones to generate higher affinity antibodies. However, recent experiments suggest that germinal centers often retain a diverse set of B cell clones ...

Did Germinal Centers evolve under differential effects of diversity vs affinity? [PDF]
The classical view on the process of mutation and affinity maturation that occurs in GCs assumes that their major role is to generate high affinity levels of serum Abs, as well as a dominant pool of high affinity memory B cells, through a very ...

Improving Pharmacokinetics of Peptides Using Phage Display
Phage display is a versatile method often used in the discovery of peptides that targets disease-related biomarkers. A major advantage of this technology is the ease and cost efficiency of affinity selection, also known as biopanning, to identify novel ...

A stepwise and digital pattern of RSK phosphorylation determines the outcome of thymic selection
Summary: Developing CD4+CD8+ double-positive (DP) thymocytes with randomly generated T cell receptors (TCRs) undergo positive (maturation) or negative (apoptosis) selection on the basis of the strength of TCR stimulation.
