Discovery of glucose-specific, peptide-based carbohydrate mimics using phage displayed random peptide libraries.

Phage displayed random peptide libraries were used to discover peptides which functionally mimic the monosaccharide glucose by screening these libraries against glucose-specific lectins. Although the screening of phage display libraries against single lectins has been previously reported, debate exi...
