A PHAGE-DISPLAYED SINGLE-CHAIN VARIABLE FRAGMENT LIBRARY

Disclosed herein is a phage-displayed single-chain variable fragment (scFv) library, that comprised a plurality of phage-displayed scFvs characterized with (1) a specific CS combination; (2) a specific distribution of aromatic residues in each CDR; and (3) a specific sequence in each CDR. The present scFv library could be used to efficiently produce different antibodies with binding affinity to different antigens. Accordingly, the present disclosure provides a potential means to generate different antigen-specific antibodies promptly in accordance with the need in experimental researches and/or clinical applications.
