Supramolecularly regulated artificial transmembrane signal transduction for 'ON/OFF'-switchable enzyme catalysis
Supramolecularly regulated artificial transmembrane signal transduction for 'ON/OFF'-switchable enzyme catalysis† Jinxing Hou,a Xiaojia Jiang,a Feihu Yang,a Liang Wang,a Tengfei Yan,b Shengda Liu,b Jiayun Xu,b Chunxi Hou,*a Quan Luo *acd and Junqiu Liu *ab Abstract An artificial signal transduction model with a supramolecular recognition headgroup, a membrane anchoring group, and a pro-enzyme catalysis endgroup was constructed.
semiaza-Bambusurils are Anion-Specific Transmembrane Transporters
semiaza-Bambusurils are Anion-Specific Transmembrane Transporters semiaza-Bambus[6]urils efficiently transport anions across lipid membranes. A systematic modification of their lipophilic side chains to include various alkyl groups and thioethers reveal that the most efficient chloride transporters are those that agree with Lipinski's "rule-of-lipophilicity," exhibiting clog Po/w values close to 5.
Supramolecular nanochannels self-assembled by helical pyridine-pyridazine oligomers
Supramolecular nanochannels self-assembled by helical pyridine-pyridazine oligomers Herein, we demonstrate a supramolecular nanochannel formed by intermolecular π stacking of pyridine-pyridazine helical oligomers, wherein alkali ions could be easily recognized and transported. Importantly, this nanochannel also revealed reversible collection and triggered-release behaviors via modulating the folded and unfolded states of helical pyridine-pyridazine oligomers.
Highly Selective Artificial Potassium Ion Channels Constructed from Pore-Containing Helical Oligomers
Potassium ion channels specifically transport K+ ions over Na+ ions across a cell membrane. A queue of four binding sites in the K+ channel pore plays significant roles during highly selective conduction. A kind of aromatic helical oligomer was synthesized that can selectively bind K+ over Na+. By aromatic stacking of helical oligomers, a type of artificial K+ channels with contiguous K+ binding sites was constructed.
