Title: Photoswitchable method for the ordered attachment of proteins to surfaces

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1176244

Described herein is a method for the attachment of proteins to any solid support with control over the orientation of the attachment. The method is extremely efficient, not requiring the previous purification of the protein to be attached, and can be activated by UV-light. Spatially addressable arrays of multiple protein components can be generated by using standard photolithographic techniques.
