Single-molecule kinetics of two-step divalent cation chelation.
A double hug: Two half-chelating ligands were covalently attached within the lumen of a protein nanopore (see picture). By electrical recording, the formation of fully chelated Zn 2+ ions was monitored at the single-molecule level, thus revealing the rate constants for the ei...

Summary: | A double hug: Two half-chelating ligands were covalently attached within the lumen of a protein nanopore (see picture). By electrical recording, the formation of fully chelated Zn 2+ ions was monitored at the single-molecule level, thus revealing the rate constants for the eight major steps in the process.
