Selective recovery of rare earth elements from industrial waste is essential for recycling processes and a green economy. Here, we developed a filamentous virus (phage)-based selective recovery system for neodymium ions (Nd3+), which are generally used in common rare earth magnets composed of neodymiumiron- boron alloys. Affinity-dependent peptide screening against Nd3+ produced phage clones displaying peptides with a specific affinity for Nd3+. Binding analyses revealed that the peptide had a specific affinity for Nd3+ rather than Fe3+. Structural analyses of the peptide showed that when the peptide bound to Nd3+, it underwent a structural transition from random-coil to beta-turn structures, resulting in specific affinity for Nd3+. Approximately 6 times more Nd3+ adsorbed onto the peptide-modified phage than Fe3+ from a mixed solution containing Nd3+ and excess Fe3+, demonstrating that suitably modified phages with Nd3+-binding peptides can act as a selective recovery scaffold for Nd3+.
