Degradation of ribonucleic acid by immobilized ribonuclease.

abstract：:Using phage display technology, we have isolated 12-mer peptide ligands that bind to human blood outgrowth endothelial cells (HBOEC). To avoid non-specific binding we apply negative-positive selection approach by pre-incubating the library with non-HBOEC. The selected phage clones bind to their target cell population ...
