A patent application (Publication Number: US20240018508A1) describes a method for determining the extent of cyclisation of a peptide ligand displayed on a genetic display system. The method involves exposing a polypeptide displayed on the genetic display system to a molecular scaffold, removing unreacted scaffold, and then exposing the peptide ligand to probes that bind to unconjugated reactive groups on the ligand. By measuring these reactive groups, the extent of cyclisation can be determined. The probes used in the method can produce signals to indicate the presence of unconjugated reactive groups on the peptide ligand, allowing for accurate analysis.

Furthermore, the method can involve multiple probes and signalling groups to provide a detailed assessment of the cyclisation process. For instance, the probes can trigger chemiluminescent or fluorescent signals based on the presence of specific reactive groups on the peptide ligand. Additionally, the genetic display system can be combined with a purification resin before the cyclisation analysis, and the system can be eluted from the resin after the process. The peptide ligand may contain loops of amino acids between reactive residues, and the molecular scaffold used can be selected from specific options. Overall, the method offers a comprehensive approach to evaluating cyclisation in peptide ligands displayed on genetic systems, with potential applications in drug development and molecular biology research.
