Protein patterning on phospholipid membranes

COLL 143

This talk will explore new methods for patterning protein molecules on supported phospholipid bilayer membranes. Up until now patterning could be performed by microfluidics or direct lithographic pattering of substrates. Alternative methods involving applied potentials, electric fields, and light address synthesis would substantially expand the toolbox of supported lipid membrane manipulation. These prospects will be discussed.
