Abstract
The present invention relates to a methods and composition in which a D-form or retro-inverso Pseudomonas pilin peptide, optionally having a polyethylene glycol moiety covalently attached to the peptide, is bound to a substrate. The disclosed methods and composition are useful for reducing the frictional coefficient, inhibiting biofilm formation by non-Pseudomonas bacteria, for reducing the inflammatory response to a material, for reducing corrosion of metals, and in biosensor applications.
