In vivophage display: identification of organ-specific peptides using deep sequencing and differential profiling across tissues

ABSTRACTIn vivophage display is widely used for identification of organ- or disease-specific homing peptides. However, the currentin vivophage biopanning approaches fail to assess biodistribution of specific peptide phages across tissues during the screen, thus necessitating laborious and time-consuming post-screening validation studies on individual peptide phages. Here, we adopted bioinformatics tools used for RNA sequencing for analysis of high throughput sequencing (HTS) data to estimate the representation of individual peptides during biopanningin vivo. The data fromin vivophage screen were analyzed using differential binding – relative representation of each peptide in the target orga…

Abstract In vivo phage display is widely used for identification of organ- or disease-specific homing peptides.

Here, we adopted bioinformatics tools used for RNA sequencing for analysis of high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data to estimate the representation of individual peptides during biopanning in vivo. The data from in vivo phage screen were analyzed using differential binding—relative representation of each peptide in the target…
