Replicable genetic packages and collections thereof that display various compounds are provided. In some instances, the replicable genetic packages include nucleic acid tags that serve to record a characteristic of the compound or compounds that are attached to the replicable genetic package. The invention further provides a number of different methods for using the replicable genetic packages to screen a library of compounds for a desired biological activity.

摘要:
Receptors are peptides and peptide mimetics that bind to and activate the thrombopoietin receptor. Such peptides and peptide mimetics are useful in methods for treating hematological disorders and particularly, thrombocytopenia resulting from chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or bone marrow transfusions as well as in diagnostic methods employing labeled peptides and peptide mimetics.

Peptides that bind to the interleukin-1 type I receptor (IL-1RtI) can be used to assay the amount of IL-1R, or an IL-1R agonist or antagonist, in a sample and comprise a sequence of amino acids selected from the group consisting of (1) WXXXGZ.sub.1 W where Z.sub.1 is L, I, A, or Q; (2) XXQZ.sub.5 YZ.sub.6 XX where Z.sub.5 is P or Aze where Aze is azetidine; and Z.sub.6 is S, A, V, or L; and (3) Z.sub.23 NZ.sub.24 SZ.sub.25 Z.sub.26 Z.sub.27 Z.sub.28 Z.sub.29 Z.sub.30 L where Z.sub.23 is D or Y; Z.sub.24 is D or S; Z.sub.25 is S or W; Z.sub.26 is S or Y; Z.sub.27 is D or V; Z.sub.28 is S or W; Z.sub.29 is F or L; and Z.sub.30 is D or L; and where each amino acid is indicated by standard one letter abbreviation; and each X can be selected from any one of the 20 genetically coded L-amino acids or the stereoisomeric D-amino acids. Also provided are peptides which bind to the IL-1RtI, which are 11 to 40 amino acids in length, which comprise the core sequence of amino acids: Z.sub.31 XWZ.sub.32 Z.sub.33 Z.sub.34 Z.sub.35 Z.sub.36 QZ.sub.37 Z.sub.38 where each letter represents the standard one letter abbreviation for an amino acid or an analog thereof; X is selected from the group of natural or unnatural amino acids; Z.sub.37 is a natural or unnatural cyclic amino acid; Z.sub.31 is selected from phenylalanine and acetylated phenylalanine; Z.sub.32 is a natural or unnatural amino acid; Z.sub.33 is selected from proline and pipecolic acid; Z.sub.34 is selected from glycine, d-alanine, d-valine, sarcosine and aminoisobutyric acid; Z.sub.35 is a natural or unnatural amino acid and Z.sub.36 is selected from tyrosine, phosphotyrosine, phenylalanine and tryptophan; and Z.sub.38 is selected from tyrosinamide and substituted tyrosinamide.
摘要:
A general stochastic method for synthesizing random oligomers on particles is disclosed. A further aspect of the invention relates to the use of identification tags on the particles to facilitate identification of the sequence of the monomers in the oligomer.
摘要:
Peptides that bind to the Interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor subunits IL-2R.alpha., IL-2R.beta. and IL-2R.gamma., and inhibit the binding of IL-2 to these important receptors, are described. The invention also includes methods for treating diseases related to the activation of these receptors, as well as the receptors for IL-4, -7 and -13. In addition, the present invention also includes methods for assaying for the presence of these receptors on cell surfaces.
摘要:
Peptides which bind to selected receptors are identified by screening libraries which encode a random or controlled collection of amino acids. Peptides encoded by the libraries are expressed as fusion proteins of bacteriophage coat proteins, and bacteriophage are then screened against the receptors of interest. Peptides having a wide variety of uses, such as therapeutic or diagnostic reagents, may thus be identified without any prior information on the structure of the expected ligand or receptor.
