Abstract:
We report a protein attachment and patterning method based on a hydroquinone-caged biotin surface that generates bioactive biotin by mild electrochemical perturbation. The electrochemical activation proceeds under the buffered aqueous environment at neutral pH. It also allows site-selective generation of bioactive biotin for the immobilization of target protein by using prepatterned electrode arrays.
