The present invention provides a novel method of two-dimensionally
arraying ferritin on a substrate, which obviates the need for a metal ion
for achieving linking between two adjacent ferritin. The present
invention provides a method of two-dimensionally arraying ferritin on a
substrate, wherein the ferritin has an amino acid sequence set out in SEQ
ID NO: 1 on the outer peripheral surface; the surface of the substrate is
hydrophilic; and the method includes a development step of developing a
solution that contains a solvent, the ferritin, and 6.5 mM to 52 mM
ammonium sulfate on the substrate, and a removal step of removing the
solvent from the solution developed on the substrate.
