9308063 Palmore This Fellow will study the interaction of proteins with surface components. A common problem with the design of biosensors, artificial organs and synthetic biological fluids is the inability to control surface/fluid interactions. Current design of biologically compatible materials is based on studies of protein adsorption at structurally ill-defined surfaces. Molecular mechanisms by which proteins are adsorbed are poorly understood. Specifically, this Fellow will study the adsorption of cytochrome c at several well-defined surfaces. Results of the studies will lead to the development of a strategy toward the rational design of biocompatible surfaces, and development of a general technique for study of protein adsorption. This work will be performed in the laboratory of Professor George Whitesides at Harvard University. ***

9308063 Palmore该研究员将研究蛋白质与表面成分的相互作用。 生物传感器、人造器官和合成生物流体的设计的一个共同问题是无法控制表面/流体相互作用。 目前的生物相容性材料的设计是基于蛋白质吸附在结构不明确的表面的研究。 蛋白质被吸附的分子机制很差， 明白 具体而言，该研究员将研究细胞色素c在几个明确定义的表面上的吸附。 研究的结果将导致一种合理设计生物相容性表面的策略的发展，以及一种生物相容性表面的发展。 研究蛋白质吸附的一般技术。 这项工作将在哈佛大学乔治怀特塞德斯教授的实验室进行。 ***
