The invention discloses a coupled peptide chain for dissolving poorly soluble polypeptides and an application thereof for separation and purification in liquid chromatography, belonging to the field of biochemistry. A special linker arm is used to link a hydrophilic polypeptide chain with a poorly soluble polypeptide chain to solve the problem that the poorly soluble polypeptide chains cannot be operated in the liquid chromatography, and optimize the combination of hydrophilic amino acids, and then the poorly soluble polypeptide chain and hydrophilic polypeptide chain are broken by hydrolyzing an ester bond, so that the target peptide chain is directly precipitated, the method has the characteristics of simplicity and high efficiency, and the poorly soluble polypeptide product obtained by the method fully meets the standards required by customers.

A platform technology provides particle and nucleic acid conjugates, and compositions thereof, with enhanced targeting to cells, tissues, organs. The particles and nucleic acids and other deliverables contain a synthetic binding protein such as a polypeptide monobody covalently conjugated to the surface of the particle or the nucleic acid, for linking a targeting agent to the particle's surface or the nucleic acid. The particles and nucleic acids and other deliverables optionally contain an antibody non-covalently conjugated to the binding protein, via an Fc domain of the antibody. The particles can include therapeutic agents, diagnostic agents, prophylactic agents, or a combination thereof, to be delivered to desired cells, tissues, and/or organs. The particles and nucleic acids and other deliverables can be used in a wide array of applications including, but not limited to, ex vivo perfusion of mammalian organs and in vivo disease treatment.

Provided herein are in situ generated conformationally constrained peptide arrays, methods for synthesizing such arrays, and methods, systems and assays comprising the use of the synthesized constrained peptide arrays for characterizing protein-target Interactions including: antibody-target interactions, receptor agonist interactions, receptor antagonist interactions, enzyme substrate interactions, enzyme inhibitor interactions, and other protein-protein interactions.

The present invention relates to the field of proteases. More specifically, the present invention provides compositions and methods useful for profiling protease activity using phage display. In one embodiment, a display vector useful for profiling protease activity comprises a nucleic acid sequence encoding (a) a peptide to be displayed on the surface of the vector; (b) a first affinity tag C-terminal to the peptide; and (c) a second affinity tag N-terminal to the peptide. The display vector can comprise a virus, bacteriophage, yeast, bacteria, retrovirus, ribosome or mRNA. In particular embodiments, the peptide comprises a human peptidome library peptide.
