Abstract
The discovery of organic ligands that bind specifically to proteins is a central problem in chemistry, biology, and the biomedical sciences. The encoding of individual organic molecules with distinctive DNA tags, serving as amplifiable identification bar codes, allows the construction and screening of combinatorial libraries of unprecedented size, thus facilitating the discovery of ligands to many different protein targets. Fundamentally, one links powers of genetics and chemical synthesis. After the initial description of DNA-encoded chemical libraries in 1992, several experimental embodiments of the technology have been reduced to practice. This review provides a historical account of important milestones in the development of DNA-encoded chemical libraries, a survey of relevant ongoing research activities, and a glimpse into the future.

Continuous cultures of fused cells secreting antibody of predefined specificity

TL;DR: The derivation of a number of tissue culture cell lines which secrete anti-sheep red blood cell (SRBC) antibodies is described here, made by fusion of a mouse myeloma and mouse spleen cells from an immunised donor.

Filamentous fusion phage: novel expression vectors that display cloned antigens on the virion surface

TL;DR: Foreign DNA fragments can be inserted into filamentous phage gene III to create a fusion protein with the foreign sequence in the middle that is incorporated into the virion, which retains infectivity and displays the foreign amino acids in immunologically accessible form.

Phage antibodies: filamentous phage displaying antibody variable domains

TL;DR: It is shown that complete antibody V domains can be displayed on the surface of fd bacteriophage, that the phage bind specifically to antigen and that rare phage can be isolated after affinity chromatography.

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.
