Screening of Deoxynivalenol Cyclic Heptapeptide Mimotope Antigen

In this study, phage clones that can bind to DON were selected from the phage cyclohepta peptide library by screening through the principle of solid-phase affinity, and mimotope were synthesized to replace the DON toxin standard to establish a green low toxicity detection system. The author conducted four rounds of screening in the phage cyclic heptapeptide library with DON-10a1a monoclonal antibody as the target molecule. Then 38 phage clones were selected and validated, and the results showed that 35 of them could bind to the DON-10a1a monoclonal antibody and were inhibited by DON toxin. Finally, the DNA was extracted and sequenced to obtain 6 different DNA sequences, which were named D1-D6 respectively. The peptides synthesized according to the corresponding amino acid sequences can replace DON toxin to establish a series of green and low toxicity assays.
