ALA‐A2 Is a Novel Anticancer Peptide Inspired by Alpha‐Lactalbumin: A Discovery from a Computational Peptide Library, In Silico Anticancer Peptide Screening and In Vitro Experimental Validation [PDF]
Anticancer peptides (ACPs) are rising as a new strategy for cancer therapy. However, traditional laboratory screening to find and identify novel ACPs from hundreds to thousands of peptides is costly and time consuming.

Analysis of Compositional Bias in a Commercial Phage Display Peptide Library by Next-Generation Sequencing [PDF]
The principal presumption of phage display biopanning is that the naïve library contains an unbiased repertoire of peptides, and thus, the enriched variants derive from the affinity selection of an entirely random peptide pool.

Mimotopes for alloreactive and conventional T cells in a peptide-MHC display library. [PDF]
The use of peptide libraries for the identification and characterization of T cell antigen peptide epitopes and mimotopes has been hampered by the need to form complexes between the peptides and an appropriate MHC molecule in order to construct a ...

Discovery of Surfactant-Like Peptides from a Phage-Displayed Peptide Library [PDF]
Peptides with specific affinities for various materials have been identified in the past three decades and utilized in materials science and engineering. A peptide’s capability to specifically interact with materials is not naturally derived but screened

Algorithm-supported, mass and sequence diversity-oriented random peptide library design [PDF]
Random peptide libraries that cover large search spaces are often used for the discovery of new binders, even when the target is unknown. To ensure an accurate population representation, there is a tendency to use large libraries.
