Aga2-fusion protein binding to yeast cell by Aga1. Image provided by Invitrogen. Phage display systems, reviewed in a recent issue of The Scientist, 1 have proven enormously useful for the detection ...

In the early and mid-1980s, scientists used phages to express recombinant proteins. The protein was retained inside the virions, so screening required growing viral plaques, creating a stamp of these ...

Techniques that are largely used for protein interaction studies and the discovery of intracellular receptors, such as affinity-capture complex purification and the yeast two-hybrid system, may ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers present a method for constructing artificial viral vectors (AVVs) using the established structural components of ...
