Protein patterning with antifouling polymer gel platforms generated using visible light irradiation

Abstract

Visible light-assisted protein patterning on a solid surface was performed with phosphorylcholine (PC) polymers bearing tyrosine residues. Because of the antifouling nature of PC polymers, protein immobilisation was regiospecifically controlled, thus enabling the microfabricated surfaces to be used as immunoassay platforms.
