New Capabilities in Genetically Engineered Peptides for Inorganics : A novel biomaterial discovery methodology utilizing an unconstrained bacterial display library is demonstrated by Dimitra Stratis‐Cullum and co‐workers on page 4585 . Among the high affinity metal‐oxide binding peptides discovered, the cover art depicts the most successful peptide, which is characterized by a highly helical structure and allows for preferential alignment of coordinating groups with the surface of an aluminum alloy.
