| Peptide
library is a systematic combination of different peptides in large
number. It is a powerful tool for drug discovery, structural studies
and other applications. Solid phase peptide synthesis, along with
other methods, has been successfully used to prepare peptide
libraries. |

Peptide Library Design & Calculator Tool |
|
| |
This tool
enables you to design overlapping peptide fragment libraries
for your native protein of interest. Features of this tool
include: Ability to set custom sequence parameters (peptide
length and amino acid offset), Format the sequence output,
Export the custom peptide library sequences to other
programs (Microsoft Word, Excel, etc). |

Applications of Peptide Library |
|
| |
Peptide
Library are used: to describe variations of antibody
specificity (epitopes), to identify bioactive peptides, to
identify ligand-binding activities, to generate synthetic
vaccines, to generate antimicrobial peptides, and to
purify proteins, etc. |

Role of Solid Supports |
|
| |
One of the
advantages of peptide libraries prepared by solid phase is
that the peptides can remain on solid support. The target
peptide can then be detected by standard immunological
enzyme staining method and separated manually under a
microscope to determine the sequence directly |
