Combinatorial phage display strategies

Alternatively, combinatorial phage display strategies have been used as an efficient mean of selecting inorganic binding peptides that promote the rapid, room temperature precipitation of tailored metal oxide particles. Silver binding peptides were thus identified and found to promote synthesis of silver particles... 

This strategy has been applied to select catalytic antibodies from phage-displayed libraries. Two catalytic single-chain antibodies catalyzing the hydrolysis of ampicillin with rate accelerations kcit/kunc lt of 5200 and 320 (kcat = 0.29 and 0.018min-1) were isolated from combinatorial libraries prepared from mice immunized with penam sulfone conjugates and selected with a biotinylated penam sulfone [61].
