Abstract
Enzyme-assisted 3D lithography: A peptide substrate for transglutaminase factor XIII (FXIIIa) can be caged with a photo-deprotectable group and immobilized to the hydrogel framework. The substrate can be decaged by using multiphoton light to anchor cell-signaling motifs in a spatial specific manner.
