Enhanced cell growth occurs on a titanium surface modified with insulin‐like growth‐factor‐1 prepared by a bioorthogonal approach combining protein engineering and enzyme modification, as shown by Y. Ito and co‐workers in their Communication on page 11447 ff. The picture shows a peptide sequence (center), which is inspired by an underwater adhesion protein (represented as a strong man) secreted by mussels, binding to a dental implant (right) representing titanium‐based medical devices, and to a growth factor stimulating a cell through the receptor (left).
