  • Publication number: 20090246251
    Abstract: The presently disclosed subject matter provides compositions comprising a first substrate-binding domain (a peptide or a polymer) having binding affinity for a tissue or a medical device, a second substrate-binding domain having binding affinity for a target molecule, and the target molecule. In some embodiments, the first and second substrate-binding domains are covalently linked. The first and second substrate-binding domains are covalently coupled to at least one hydrophobic interaction tag, negatively charged interaction tag, or positively charged interaction tag. When the substrate-binding domains are combined and coated onto the tissue or medical device, the hydrophobic interaction tags interact with each other and the charged interaction tags interact with the oppositely charged interaction tags or the oppositely charged substrate binding polymers, to form a macromolecular network of non-covalently coupled substrate-binding domains to load the target molecule onto the tissue or medical device.
