Australian Peptide Display Facility

The aim of this project is to develop a globally unique facility for the discovery of bioactive peptides for application in the chemical and biological sciences and industry. We expect to build an integrated technology platform for theidentification, synthesis, purification and confirmatory testing of such molecules with unprecedented speed andefficiency. The intended outcome is the establishment of a national peptide display facility that will be accessibleto all Australian researchers, leading to enhanced capacity to discover bioactive molecules for a range ofapplications. This should provide economic benefits through commercial development, including the discovery of new agricultural products.
