The present invention relates to libraries of display phage which display various mutant epitopic peptides or protein domains with potential to bind to a target material of interest. Site-specific protease cleavable linkers may be incorporated into these phages to overcome the problem of irreversible binding to target materials. When the displayed insert is a mini-protein, a reagent which cleaves the crosslink may be used to facilitate release of a tightly bound display phage. The invention also relates to providing a more balanced library of epitopic peptide display phage.
