Abstract

Ringing the changes: A selective, controlled, and tunable attachment of proteins to a metal or to insulating surfaces is presented. A ring-shaped protein encapsulating SiO2-binding peptides (see picture: yellow) was engineered to expose multiple binding sites simply by changing solvent conditions, thereby creating a single monolayer without the need for surface modification.
