Controlling Surface Properties with Peptides: New Methods in Molecular Self-Assembly
Keyword(s):
As part of our investigation into the design and applications of proteolytic enzymes, we required a convenient method to attach peptides to the surface of a variety of materials. In this paper we report the synthesis and characterization of a class of peptide derivatized lipids (PDL's) that can be self-assembled into monomolecular films. These films can be used to control interfacial properties such as wetting and adhesion and provide a simple method to coat surfaces with amino acids.
