Systematic profiling of peptide substrate specificity in N-terminal processing by methionine aminopeptidase using mRNA display and an unnatural methionine analogue

The paper systematically profiles MAP substrate specificity using mRNA display and N-terminal Met analogues, revealing residue impacts on cleavage efficiency.

In vitro selection of cyclized, glycosylated peptide antigens that tightly bind HIV high mannose patch antibodies

The paper develops a method to select glycopeptides that bind HIV broadly neutralizing antibodies, achieving tight binding with KD as low as 0.5 nM.
