Bioactive Peptide for Cell Adhesion
- Detailed Technology Description
- The invention is directed to a polypeptide derived fromdomain IV of the extracellular matrix protein perlecan that can selectivelyadhere cells, nucleic acids encoding the inventive polypeptide, vectorscomprising the nucleic acids, devices comprising a scaffold coated with theinventive polypeptide, and methods of adhering cells to a scaffold using theinventive polypeptide. The peptide had applications to in vitro cellular adhesion, including but not limited to:Cell cultureMaterials coatingDevice surface property manipulation Fig. Photograph of 10T1/2 cells plated on plastic coated with the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:1
