De novo design of a transmembrane Zn[superscript 2+]-transporting four-helix bundle

The design of functional membrane proteins from first principles represents a grand challenge in chemistry and structural biology. Here, we report the design of a membrane-spanning, four-helical bundle that transports first-row transition metal ions Zn[superscript 2+] and Co[superscript 2+], but not...
