general method for the covalentimmobilization of fusion proteins is presented. The approach is based on the unusual mechanism of the human O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase, which irreversibly transfers the alkyl group from its substrate, alkylated or benzylated guanine, to a reactive cysteine residue. By attaching the benzyl group to a surface, hAGT fusion proteinsimmobilize themselves in a specific
