## Abstract Compelling evidence suggests that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its receptors play an important role in angiogenesis associated with tumor growth and metastasis. VEGF exerts its biologic activities through 2 transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptors: the __fms__βlike tyros

The selection of antibodies from combinatorial libraries displayed on the surface of filamentous phage has become an important methodology for the generation of reagent, diagnostic, and therapeutic molecules and for the study of natural immune responses. Using this technique, antibody genes have bee
A novel approach for the selection of high-affinity phage from phage-peptide libraries is described. The methodology employs a chemically modified form of streptavidin, termed nitrostreptavidin, which exhibits a reversible attraction for biotin. The new approach emulates conventional procedures in t
Phage antibody-display is rapidly maturing into a very effective tool for antibody generation. The recent development of large primary antibody libraries enables selection of antibodies against most targets in under two weeks and many of these antibodies have relatively high (nanomolar) affinities.
