Biologically identified peptides that bind to the surfaces of isotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), syndiotactic PMMA, and their assembled stereocomplex films were used as noncovalent surface modifiers. Each peptide was biotinylated and immobilized onto the PMMA films to function as a linker for the subsequent immobilization of streptavidin. We demonstrated that the PMMA species had a great impact on the peptides' abilities to functionally modify the film surfaces.
