In the presentation, we describe the genetical synthesis of lysine tagged ELP (ELP-K) with inverse phase transition temperature (Tt) of 30? for fabricating a thermo-responsive culture surface. For the micropatterning of ELP-K a removable polymer template was microcontact-printed on the glass surface derivatized with epoxide. After conjugating ELP-K onto the glass surface followed by dissolving a polymer template, highly resolved ELP-K micropatterns were efficiently created on the surface. The successful micropatterning of the polypeptide was confirmed using ELP-K conjugated with fluorescence dye by confocal microscopy as well as atomic force microscopic images. TOF-SIMS images of ELP-K micropatterns verified the highly resolved ELP microstructure on the surface.
