Journal ArticleDOI

Proline-Catalyzed Direct Asymmetric Aldol Reactions

TL;DR: The finding that the amino acid proline is an effective asymmetric catalyst for the direct aldol reaction between unmodified acetone and a variety of aldehydes is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular characterization of an enzyme that degrades neuromodulatory fatty-acid amides

TL;DR: It is shown that oleamide hydrolase may serve as the general inactivating enzyme for a growing family of bioactive signalling molecules, the fatty-acid amides6–8, and the structure and sleep-inducing properties of cis-9-octadecenamide, a lipid isolated from the cerebrospinal fluid of sleep-deprived cats are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation of a large combinatorial library of the immunoglobulin repertoire in phage lambda

TL;DR: A novel bacteriophage lambda vector system was used to express in Escherichia coli a combinatorial library of Fab fragments of the mouse antibody repertoire, which allows rapid and easy identification of monoclonal Fab fragments in a form suitable for genetic manipulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assembly of combinatorial antibody libraries on phage surfaces: the gene III site.

TL;DR: A phagemid system was developed for the monovalent display of combinatorial antibody Fab libraries on the surface of filamentous phage M13, and may replace current antibody cloning techniques.
Patent

Heterodimeric receptor libraries using phagemids

TL;DR: In this article, a filamentous phage comprising a matrix of cpVIII proteins encapsulating a genome encoding first and second polypeptides of an antogenously assembling receptor, such as an antibody, is presented.
