Abstract
Methods for Identifying protein modulators of eukaryotic cells by expressing a combinatorial library of potential agonists inside a eukaryotic cell and then directly selecting for an agonist of a target molecule. Some methods involve co-culturing a cell expressing a combinatorial library of potential agonists and a second cell, and then selecting agents that modulate a phenotype of or a desired cellular response in the second cell. Preferably, the agonists are antibodies introduced into and expressed in the starting cells, such as agonist anti-EpoR, anti-TpoR, or G-CSFR antibodies. Also disclosed are methods for selecting from combinatorial antibody libraries bispecific antibodies that can regulate cell phenotypes.
