Phylomer Libraries: A Rich Source of Peptide Hits in Phenotypic and Target Directed Screens

The poor hit rates associated with conventional random peptide libraries present formidable challenges in genetic screening formats with limited throughput.

Research

Structure-diverse Phylomer libraries as a rich source of bioactive hits from phenotypic and target directed screens against intracellular proteins

Phylomer libraries are being increasingly used in applications such as phenotypic screening where the numbers of peptides which can be feasibly screened is limited
