Biomaterials: Genetically Engineered Peptides for Inorganics: Study of an Unconstrained Bacterial Display Technology and Bulk Aluminum Alloy (Adv. Mater. 33/2013). (3rd September 2013) - Adams, Bryn L.
Abstract New Capabilities in Genetically Engineered Peptides for Inorganics: A novel biomaterial discovery methodology utilizing an unconstrained bacterial display library is demonstrated by Dimitra Stratis‐Cullum and co‐workers on page 4585. Among the high affinity metal‐oxide binding peptides discovered, the cover art depicts the most successful peptide, which is characterized by a highly helical structure and allows for preferential alignment of coordinating groups with the surface of an aluminum alloy.
