Sorting a Staphylococcus aureus phage display library against ex vivo biomaterial

Bjerketorp J, Rosander A, Nilsson M, Jacobsson K, Frykberg L

Sammanfattning

A phage display library made from Staphylococcus aureus DNA was sorted against a central venous catheter (CVC) that had been removed from a patient 2 days after insertion. After the first panning, approximately 50% of the clones encoded proteins known to interact with mammalian proteins. After the second and third pannings, fibrinogen-binding and beta(2)-glycoprotein I (beta(2)-GPI)-binding phage particles were clearly dominating. Proteins adsorbed to different CVCs were investigated using specific antibodies. Among the proteins probed for, fibrinogen was most abundant, but, interestingly, beta(2)-GPI was also detected on all tested CVCs
