Water Dynamics in a Peptide-appended Pillar[5]arene Artificial Channel in Lipid and Biomimetic Membranes.

Peptide-appended Pillar[5]arene (PAP) is an artificial water channel that can be incorporated into lipid and polymeric membranes to achieve high permeability and enhanced selectivity for angstrom-scale separations [Shen et al. :2294 (2018)]. In comparison to commonly studied rigid carbon nanotubes, PAP channels are conformationally flexible, yet these channels allow a high water permeability [Y.

Parameterization and atomistic simulations of biomimetic membranes.

Biomimetic membranes, designed by combining proteins or protein-mimics with self-assembled block copolymers, are emerging as novel hybrid materials with applications in the next generation of sensing and separation devices. However, designing such membranes requires a fundamental understanding of the atomic-scale interactions between biological channel proteins and their non-native polymeric membrane environment as it affects their stability and function. In principle, all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are well-suited to probe the atomistic details of channel/membrane interactions, but the absence of interatomic potentials is a major limiting factor in conducting such simulations.

Achieving high permeability and enhanced selectivity for Angstrom-scale separations using artificial water channel membranes.

Synthetic polymer membranes, critical to diverse energy-efficient separations, are subject to permeability-selectivity trade-offs that decrease their overall efficacy. These trade-offs are due to structural variations (e.g.
