Abstract
Compositions and methods are provided using fusion peptides comprising at least one multi-functional solubility tag having an effective number of cross-linkable cysteines residues. The multi-functional peptidic solubility tags facilitate efficient fusion peptide production, easier downstream processing of the fusion peptide, and provide functional surface properties when coupled to a target material while the cross-linkable cysteines provide enhanced durability when binding the fusion peptide to a target material.
