Abstract

Patchy surfaces: An azide-terminated self-assembled monolayer was patterned with the peptide sequence (EIAALEK)3 by using microcontact printing. This sequence forms stable coiled-coil heterodimers with the complementary peptide (KIAALKE)3. By introducing this peptide to the surface of phospholipid liposomes and cyclodextrin vesicles, liposomes and vesicles can be immobilized at the patterned surface.
