1. An expression vector comprising:

  • a chimeric gene encoding a peptide, operatively linked to a functional promoter, said expression vector when inserted into a host transcribes said chimeric gene into a gene product which is translated into said peptide which is capable of binding to or altering at least one target molecule which induces stress on said host;

    wherein said peptide comprises a non-naturally occurring, randomly selected peptide which is not derived from a naturally occurring peptide and is selected by sequential culturing of a host exposed to said target molecule and identifying conferred resistance to said stress on said host caused by said target molecule.
