Scope and Contents

Contents

A DNA-based channel that undergoes a nanomechanical change in response to the binding of a specific ligand can be used to selectively transport small-molecule cargo across a lipid bilayer.
Biological ion channels are molecular gatekeepers that control transport across cell membranes. Recreating the functional principle of such systems and extend...
