Phage Display-Derived Peptide for the Specific Binding of SARS-CoV-2.

ABSTRACT: Beginning from the end of 2019, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic swept all over the world and is still afflicting the whole global population. Given that the vaccine-manufacturing ability is limited and the virus can evolve quickly, vaccination alone may not be able to end the pandemic, thus developing fast and accurate diagnoses and effective therapeutics will always be unmet needs. Phage display peptide library has been used in screening antigen-specific peptides for the invention of novel mimic receptors/ligands. Here, we report that a 12-mer phage display peptide library has been screened against the SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain (RBD), and five of the screened peptides show binding ability with the RBD protein by the enzyme-linked immune s
