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.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Perspective on Enzyme Catalysis

TL;DR: A case study for the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase provides evidence for coupled networks of predominantly conserved residues that influence the protein structure and motion that have important implications for the origin and evolution of enzymes, as well as for protein engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colloidal Au-Enhanced Surface Plasmon Resonance for Ultrasensitive Detection of DNA Hybridization

TL;DR: A new approach to ultrasensitive detection of DNA hybridization based on nanoparticle-amplified surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is described, with a greater than 10-fold increase in angle shift and a more than 1000-fold improvement in sensitivity for the target oligonucleotide as compared to the unamplify binding event.
Journal ArticleDOI

On-chip manipulation of single microparticles, cells, and organisms using surface acoustic waves

TL;DR: Standing surface acoustic wave based “acoustic tweezers” are demonstrated that can trap and manipulate single microparticles, cells, and entire organisms in a single-layer microfluidic chip and will become a powerful tool for many disciplines of science and engineering.
