Abstract：
:A nonimmune phagemid recombinant antibody fragment (rFab) library was generated with a nominal diversity of 1.16 x 10(7) using the QuikChange Multi Site-Directed Mutagenesis kit. Two degenerate primers spanning the third complementarity-determining region (CDR) loops of the antibody fragment light and heavy chain were mutated such that eight or nine amino acids were randomly changed per CDR loop. Seven proteins were used to evaluate the library quality. Protein-specific rFab antibodies were selected after three panning cycles. From 12% to 64% of the randomly selected colonies produced positive ELISA signals to the phagemid rFabs. Multisite-directed mutagenesis allowed a diverse rFab library to be rapidly constructed while retaining the structural framework of a Fab that had been optimized for production in Escherichia coli.

BIOTECHNIQUES文献大全abstract：:Manipulating gene expression in primary neurons has been a goal for many scientists for over 20 years. Vertebrate central nervous system neurons are classically difficult to transfect.
