The adsorption of recombinant barnacle proteins Bacp19k and Mrcp19k on hydrophilic silica surface was characterized by spectroscopic ellipsometry in artificial seawater (pH = 8.2). They are homologous adhesive proteins destined for underwater adhesion but bear opposite net charges in seawater. As assessed with their primary and secondary structures, both proteins are intrinsically disordered and thus distinct from globular proteins that have dominated research in the field. Different from Mrcp19k, higher initial rate and adsorbed amount were obtained via curve fitting for Bacp19k in kinetic studies, due to favorable charge interactions with silica surface. The good fitting with the same dynamic model also indicates the formation of monolayer coverage in both cases. The two adsorption isotherms of Bacp19k and Mrcp19k are different in the initial change and maximum adsorption level, indicating different protein-surface affinities and charge interactions. Each isotherm fits the Langmuir model well, which is commonly used to describe monolayer adsorption, thus consistent with the predication from kinetic fitting. To further examine the effect of electrostatic interaction on the adsorption, the isotherm of the 1:1 mixture of Bacp19k and Mrcp19k was also constructed, which showed a higher correlation fit for Jovanovic than for Langmuir model. The presence of electrostatic attraction between Bacp19k and Mrcp19k deviated from one of the required conditions for Langmuir behavior, which may also result in the highest coadsorption level but slowest initial change among the three isotherms. The surface state of the adhesive proteins and the change with adsorption time were also examined by atomic force microscopy. The results thus obtained are in good agreement with the corresponding ellipsometric measurement.
