Abstract
A method of selectively arraying ferritin and inorganic particles on a silicon oxide substrate at regions having vanadium, niobium or tantalum. An aspect of the method includes steps of: preparing a solution which contains ferritin modified at an N-terminal part of a subunit with a peptide set out in SEQ ID NO: 1, and from 0.01 v/v % to 10 v/v % of a nonionic surfactant and having a pH of from 7.4 to 8.2; and a binding step of bringing the solution in contact with regions of the substrate having vanadium, niobium, or tantalum to selectively array peptide-modified ferritin to vanadium, niobium or, tantalum portion. The method may also include a step of selectively arraying ferritin modified with the peptide set out in SEQ ID NO: 1, and the inorganic particles contained in ferritin at the vanadium, niobium, or tantalum portion by removing the solution.
