A functional linker material based on the fusion of mussel adhesive protein with the BC domain of protein A efficiently immobilizes antibodies on diverse surfaces, as presented by Hyung Joon Cha and coworkers on page 4101 . The cover shows an antibody immobilized on diverse surfaces in an oriented manner using this functional linker. This material has signifi cant potential as an immobilizing agent for the development of various immunosensors and immunoarrays.
