Abstract
Heparin/heparan sulfate (HS) plays a key role in cellular adhesion. In this study, we utilized a 12‐mer random Escherichia coli cell surface display library to identify the sequence, which binds to heparin. Isolated insert analysis revealed a novel heparin‐binding peptide sequence, VRRSKHGARKDR, designated as HBP12. Our analysis of the sequence alignment of heparin‐binding motifs known as the Cardin–Weintraub consensus (BBXB, where B is a basic residue) indicates that the HBP12 peptide sequence contains two consecutive heparin‐binding motifs (i.e. RRSK and RKDR). SPR‐based BIAcore technology demonstrated that the HBP12 peptide binds to heparin with high affinity (K~D~ = 191 nM). The HBP12 peptide is found to bind the cell surface HS expressed by osteoblastic MC3T3 cells and promote HS‐dependent cell adhesion. Moreover, the surface‐immobilized HBP12 peptide on titanium substrates shows significant increases in the osteoblastic MC3T3‐E1 cell adhesion and proliferation.
