Oligoamide macrocycles 1d and 1e, which carry membrane-compatible side chains and contain a hydrophilic, noncollapsible cavity, were found to mediate high ion flux across a lipid bilayer, as demonstrated by results from (23)Na NMR and planar bilayer conductance measurements. The measured transmembrane single channel currents are very high, rivaling those typically associated with pore-forming protein toxins. The obtained results have demonstrated the promise of developing large, highly conducting channels based on nanopores formed by oligoamide macrocycles.
携带与膜兼容侧链且含有亲水性、不可塌陷腔的寡酰胺大环化合物1d和1e,经(23)Na NMR和平面双层电导测量结果表明,可介导高离子通量穿过脂质双层。测得的跨膜单通道电流非常高,可与通常与成孔蛋白毒素相关的电流相媲美。所得结果表明了基于寡酰胺大环化合物形成的纳米孔开发大型、高导电通道的前景。
