Technical Foundation for R&D Delivery

Our Yeast Display Platform is the engine behind this service. Yeast surface display uses Saccharomyces cerevisiae to express proteins of interest (here, peptide-MHC complexes) as fusions with cell wall anchor proteins.

More Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Is this service compatible with both MHC Class I and Class II?

    Yes. Our platform supports robust and reproducible workflows for:
    Class I (HLA-A, B, C; H-2K, D, L): typically using single-chain trimer designs or peptide-exchange systems.
    Class II (HLA-DR, DQ, DP; H-2 I-A, I-E): using linked α/β chains with peptide libraries displayed as flexible loops.
    Please specify your allele(s) during inquiry.

  2. What is the minimum peptide library size you recommend?

    For unbiased epitope discovery, we typically screen 107~108 unique peptides. Smaller libraries (105~106) are acceptable for focused saturation mutagenesis or validation of known epitope variants. We will help you design the appropriate library based on your biological question.

  3. How do you maintain PTM fidelity during screening?

    Unlike E. coli or phage systems, yeast possesses the Golgi apparatus and ER chaperones required for most eukaryotic PTMs (N-glycosylation, phosphorylation, sulfation). For labile modifications (e.g., O-glycosylation), we use protease-deficient yeast strains and optimized low-temperature culture to preserve native modification patterns.

  4. Who owns the intellectual property from a discovery project?

    All IP generated from your project including peptide sequences, MHC constructs, and enriched clones is exclusively yours. We do not retain any rights to your hits or claim co-ownership. A standard MNDA and service agreement will be provided before project initiation.
