Abstract: This review focuses on two-dimensional imprinting of protein molecule. The basic conception of two-dimensional imprinting of protein molecule is simply introduced. The general principle of two-dimensional approaches of protein imprinting are explained, including epitope imprinting, sol-gel approach, radio frequency glow-discharge plasma deposition, Langmuir lipid monolayer approach and so on. The physical forms of the materials of two-dimensional imprinting of protein molecule are mainly thin film, lipid monolayer, core-shell microbeads and nanowires. The preparation, binding ability and selective recognition on the materials of two-dimensional imprinting of protein molecule are recounted. The recognition mechanisms of the various materials are analyzed for template proteins. The advantages and shortcomings of these materials are pointed out
