Phage display is also a widely used method for in vitro protein evolution (also called protein engineering). As such, phage display is a useful tool in drug discovery. It is used for finding new ligands (enzyme inhibitors, receptor agonists and antagonists) to target proteins.
On 18 January 2010, ABC News reported Trijicon was placing references to verses in the Bible in the serial numbers of sights sold to the United States Armed Forces. [1] The "book chapter:verse" cites were appended to the model designation, and the majority of the cited verses are associated with light in darkness, referencing Trijicon's specialization in illuminated optics and night sights.
John McCafferty is a British scientist, one of the founders of Cambridge Antibody Technology alongside Sir Gregory Winter and David Chiswell. He is well known as one of the inventors of scFv antibody fragment phage display, [1] a technology that revolutionised the monoclonal antibody drug discovery.
Structure of phage ΦX174 capsid Schematic drawing of a Sinsheimervirus (aka Phix174microvirus) virion. The phi X 174 (or ΦX174) bacteriophage is a single-stranded DNA virus that infects Escherichia coli.
Bacterial display (or bacteria display or bacterial surface display) is a protein engineering technique used for in vitro protein evolution. Libraries of polypeptides displayed on the surface of bacteria can be screened using flow cytometry or iterative selection procedures (biopanning).
The article does seem to focus on filamentous phage display and accentuates the need for helper phage. This ignores methods based not on phagemids but on engineered M13 phage - the approach taken at the outset by Smith. Phil Scrutinator 17:44, 14 March 2008 (UTC) T7 phage display should be mentioned also.

Phage typing is based on the specific binding of phages to antigens and receptors on the surface of bacteria and the resulting bacterial lysis or lack thereof. [4] The binding process is known as adsorption. [5] Once a phage adsorbs to the surface of a bacteria, it may undergo either the lytic cycle or the lysogenic cycle. [6]
