Reversal of charge selectivity in transmembrane protein pores by using noncovalent molecular adapters.
In this study, the charge selectivity of staphylococcal alpha-hemolysin (alphaHL), a bacterial pore-forming toxin, is manipulated by using cyclodextrins as noncovalent molecular adapters. Anion-selective versions of alphaHL, including the wild-type pore and various mutants, become more anion selecti...
