title: Phage display.
abstract: Phage display is a powerful method for the selection and evolution of proteins and peptides. Applications include the generation of potent and novel antibodies, the in vitro improvement of protein affinity and function, epitope discovery, the development of leads for vaccine research and the identification of interacting proteins using cDNA libraries.
