Our new preprint is on ChemRxiv. We combine mRNA display with DNA-encoded chemistry, using two successive residue-selective modifications recorded by DNA barcodes. The approach generated ~20 million nominal chemical structures and was demonstrated by selection against CAIX.

DNA-Encoded Chemical Diversification of mRNA Display Libraries | ChemRxiv
mRNA display can survey vast peptide populations, but the chemical diversity available to selection remains largely constrained by translation. DNA-encoded libraries possess the complementary advantag...

Ligase-catalyzed transcription and reverse-transcription of XNA-containing nucleic acid polymers using T3 DNA ligase
A method to enable the transliteration between various XNA-continaing nucleic acids and canonical DNA is described. Using Ligase-catalysed oligonucleotide polymerisation (LOOPER), we show that DNA can...
