In general, the invention features a novel CBM32-derived affinity scaffold. In certain embodiments, the scaffold comprises two types of regions: constant regions (CRs) and variable loop regions (VLRs) as depicted in the structure in FIG. 1. We have discovered that the CRs provide structural features that enable overall conformational stability while the intervening sequences corresponding to VLRs tolerate amino acid sequence randomization.

Provided herein are lasso peptides libraries, and particularly molecular display libraries of lasso peptides. Also provided herein are related methods and systems for producing the libraries and for screening the libraries to identify candidate lasso peptides having desirable properties.
