This invention belongs to the fields of
molecular biology and
bioinformatics, specifically relating to a truncated bovine
virus-encoded
protein phage
library, its construction method, and applications. This
library covers all 162 known bovine viruses that host bovine
subfamily viruses, containing 51,794 non-redundant
peptide coding sequences of 56 amino acids each. These peptides are fused and displayed on the surface of the T7 phage
capsid, with all coding sequences having a uniform total length of 200 bp. The
library construction was achieved through sequence acquisition, truncation and redundancy removal,
codon optimization and
DNA synthesis, and
in vitro ligation and packaging with T7 phage. The resulting library exhibits a positivity rate of 93% and a
titer of 2.8 × 10⁻⁶. 10 PFU / mL. This invention features an optimized single-round high-
throughput screening process adapted to clinical bovine
serum samples, enabling efficient identification of bovine
virus B-
cell epitopes and providing tools and candidate targets for bovine
virus vaccine development and
diagnostic reagent development.
