Abstract
The identification of peptide aptamer with conformational variability was described using affinity selection of peptide phage libraries against single-wall carbon nanohorns (SWHN). The SWHNs were prepared by CO 2 laser ablation under an Ar gas atmosphere at room temperature. After six rounds of M13 phage library, an increase in ratio of bound to input phages was observed, which indicated that SWNH-binding phages were concentrated in mixture. The results show that M13 phage display technology enables to identify a 12-amino-acid pIII tail sequence, DYFSSPYYEQLF, which exhibits a binding preference for SWNH surfaces.
