COVER STORY
Development and Application of Biopolymer Interfaces
Advances in biotechnology have enabled the design of artificial biomolecules for applications in engineering. In addition, recent technology enables the combination of biomolecules with polymer surfaces to develop new interface technology that preserve the native functions of the biomolecules. This current issue features such developments of the science of biopolymer interfaces containing proteins, lipids and polysaccharides. The advanced applications of biopolymer interfaces in cell engineering, protein engineering and diagnostics based on results from the functional and structural analysis are described.
