  • Publication number: 20190144937
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods of identifying the presence and relative abundance of a protein in or on a cell or population of cells, with the methods comprising applying to a population of cellular proteins a collection of Fab-phage particles that contain nucleic acid encoding at least one antibody Fab fragment, wherein each of the antibody Fab fragments has a known protein to which it will bind in a specific manner. After binding is allowed to occur, those Fab-phage not bound to targets are washed away and the remaining phage are propagated in bacteria before the nucleic acid within the Fab-phage is amplified and then sequenced to determine the polynucleotide sequences of the nucleic acid molecules from the Fab-phages that bound to the cellular proteins. The nucleotide sequences of the nucleic acid molecules from the Fab-phages correlate to the coding sequences of the antibody Fab fragments that are known to bind in a specific manner to a protein.
