mRNA display is a cell-free display technology that can select proteins from a large recombinant DNA library in vitro. It also allows mutations to be continuously introduced into the selected DNA library through PCR-based mutations in each cycle, thus enabling the selection of protein variants with improved consistency, specificity and stability, thus providing a powerful "protein evolution" tool for optimizing therapeutic and diagnostic proteins. CD BioSciences is committed to applying in vitro display technology to the field of protein research, and has accumulated rich experience in screening and guiding protein evolution over the years, which can provide customers with more flexible, fast and cost-effective protein screening and analysis services.
Protein screening uses mRNA display technology, which allows a large number of mutants to be examined in a single experiment. The protein displayed by mRNA is a structure of covalent connection between a protein and the mRNA encoding it. The covalent linkage between phenotype (protein) and genotype (RNA) effectively makes the protein directly amplified. This connection enables continuous selection, amplification and optional mutation cycles on protein libraries larger than 1012. The size of this library is much larger than that used by most in vivo and in vitro screening methods, and several orders of magnitude larger than that used by traditional screening techniques. The mRNA display program is completely carried out in vitro, which makes it possible to select under various interesting conditions that are incompatible with traditional in vivo selection methods (salt, pH, additives, etc.). If RNA stability is concerned in some environments, RNA can be replaced by its cDNA. mRNA display has been used to select specific ligands from libraries of proteins, peptides, cyclized peptides and peptides constructed from unnatural amino acids.
