Quantitative screening of EGF receptor-binding peptides by using a peptide library with multiple fluorescent amino acids as fluorescent tags

Abstract: EGF receptor-binding peptides could be found by a peptide screening method using fifteen fluorescent amino acids as fluorescent tags. Of 225 peptides, we found an 8-mer peptide containing a dipeptide unit, Y–F, which was the strongest binding peptide to the EGF receptor. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
