Phage and Yeast Display Library Screening for the Novice*
Presenters:
Jamie Kathleen Scott, M.D., Ph.D.,
Simon Fraser University
Andrew M. Bradbury, M.B. B.S.,
Ph.D., Los Alamos National Laboratory
James D. Marks,
M.D., Ph.D., University of California, San Francisco
This workshop is meant to bring the novice up to speed
on the display technologies covered by the main
conference. The workshop will provide an
overview of:
-
Phage display and construction of phage-displayed
peptide, scFv and Fab libraries
-
Yeast display and construction of yeast-displayed
scFv and Fab libraries
-
Screening technologies that are compatible with
phage- vs. yeast-display libraries
*Separate Registration Required
