A selection of short peptides that interact with a porphyrin as a small target by immobilized phage display

Abstract

Porphyrin H₂TMpyP binding peptides were selected from a phage displayed pentapeptide library that was immobilized onto a solid phase and, as a result, a binding motif that binds to the porphyrin in the same way as a motif obtained by our previous combinatorial chemistry was revealed.

10. Oligonucleotides TGGCC(NNK)₅GC and GGCCGC(MNN)₅-GGCCAGCT (N = A/G/C/T, K = G/T and M = A/C, respectively) were synthesized on a solid support by employing the phosphoramidite method. The deblocked free oligonucleotides were kinated and annealed to form a duplex with the restricted end of Sfi I and Not I. The synthesized duplex was ligated to the Sfi I and Not I sites of a filamentous phagemid vector pCANTAB5E (Pharmacia). The introduced artificial codons lead to successive five random amino acids in an N-terminus region of a surface protein, pIII. An amber suppresser Escherichia coli TG1 was transformed by the phagemid and recombinant phages were collected from the overnight culture medium after infection of a helper phage M13KO7.
