Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
A method of obtaining a molecule selected from the group consisting of a peptide, a polypeptide, a protein, and a fragment of a protein that homes to a selected organ or tissue, comprising the steps of: a. administering to a subject a phage display library expressing diverse molecules; b. collecting a sample of the selected organ or tissue; and c. identifying a molecule that homes to said selected organ or tissue, wherein said molecule is expressed on a phage present in said sample.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 83 words
A method of obtaining a molecule selected from the group consisting of a peptide, a polypeptide, a protein, and a fragment of a protein that homes to a selected organ or tissue, comprising the steps of: a. administering to a subject a phage display library expressing diverse molecules; b. collecting a sample of the selected organ or tissue; and c. identifying a molecule that homes to said selected organ or tissue, wherein said molecule is expressed on a phage present in said sample.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said selected organ or tissue is selected from the group consisting of brain and kidney.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said selected organ or tissue is a tumor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said molecule is selected from the group consisting of a polypeptide, a protein and a fragment of a protein.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said molecule is a peptide.
