Abstract

Screening of peptides to find the ligands that bind to specific targets is an important step in drug discovery. These high-throughput screens require large number of structural variants of peptides to be synthesized and tested. This chapter describes the generation of arrays of peptides on Teflon-patterned sheets of paper. First, the protocol describes the patterning of paper with a Teflon solution to produce arrays with solvophobic barriers that are able to confine organic solvents. Next, we describe the parallel syntheses of 96 peptides on Teflon-patterned arrays using the SPOT synthesis method.
