Abstract excerpt
A small combinatorial library of LDTI mutants (5.2 x 10(4)) restricted to the P1-P4' positions of the reactive site was displayed on the pCANTAB 5E phagemid, and LDTI fusion phages were produced and selected for potent neutrophil elastase and plasmin inhibitors. Strong fusion phage binders were analyzed by ELISA on enzyme-coated microtiter plates and the positive phages had their DNA sequenced. The LDTI variants:...
