Description
  • Phage display has demonstrated the utility of cyclic peptides as general protein ligands but cannot access proteins inside eukaryotic cells. Expanding a new chemical genetics tool, we describe the first expressed library of head-to-tail cyclic peptides in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) We applied the library to selections in a yeast model of α-synuclein toxicity that recapitulates much of the ce... read more
