Synthetic surfaces , presenting a covalently immobilized oligopeptide sequence (FN13) from the self‐assembly domain of fibronectin (FN), nucleate and template the assembly of robust fibrillar extracellular matrices. These matrices contain fibronectin and type I collagen (COL), as shown in the Figure, and exhibit increased cell‐proliferation rates.
