Applications of display technologies to proteomic analyses

With the rapid accumulation of genetic information, development of general experimental approach suitable for large scale annotation and profiling of the whole proteome have become one of the major challenges in postgenomic era. Biomolecular display technologies, which allow expressing of a large pool of modularly coded biomolecules, are extremely useful for accessing and analyzing protein diversity and interaction profile on a large scale. Recent advances in protein display technologies and their applications to proteomic analyses have been discussed.
