  • Patent number: 7863222
    Abstract: As noted above, certain aspects of this disclosure relate to a library of nucleic acid vectors, as well as a method for making the same. In certain embodiments, the library of nucleic acid vectors comprises: a plurality of nucleic acid molecules of the following formula: S1—R—S2 wherein, in each nucleic acid of the plurality: S1 and S2 are each at least 15 nucleotides in length; S1 and S2 are complementary to each other along their entire length; either S1 or S2 is complementary along its entire length to a sequence in eukaryotic mRNA; and R is a six base recognition site for a restriction endonuclease; and wherein S1 and S2 vary in nucleotide sequence between different members of the plurality. A method for amplifying a circular nucleic acid is also provided.

  • Patent number: 7745196
    Abstract: The invention provides methods and compositions for identifying modulators, particularly peptide modulators, of cell surface receptor activity. Specifically, the invention provides a cell containing a recombinant nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide modified for intracellular presentation, which cell may further comprise one or both of a recombinant nucleic acid encoding a binding partner for that polypeptide and recombinant nucleic acid encoding a test polypeptide. The subject cell may be a member of a library of cells, and the library may be used in screening methods for identifying test polypeptides (e.g., conformationally restrained polypeptides) having cell surface receptor modulatory activity. The invention finds use in a variety of drug-discovery applications.
