Ribosome display is a powerful method for selection of single-chain antibodies in vitro. It operates through the formation of libraries of antibody–ribosome–mRNA complexes that are selected on immobilized antigen, followed by recovery of the genetic information from the mRNA by RT-PCR. Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic versions are used. We describe our eukaryotic system, in which rabbit reticulocyte extracts are used for cell free transcription/translation and cDNA is recovered by in situ RT-PCR performed on the selected complexes.
