Abstract
Different types of natural K+ channels share similar core modules and cation permeability characteristics. In this study, we have developed novel artificial K+ channels by rebuilding the core modules of natural K+ channels in artificial systems. All the channels displayed high selectivity for K+ over Na+ and exhibited a selectivity sequence of K+ ≈Rb+ during the transport process, which is highly consistent with the cation permeability characteristics of natural K+ channels. More importantly, these artificial channels could be efficiently inserted into cell membranes and mediate the transmembrane transport of K+ , disrupting the cellular K+ homeostasis and eventually triggering the apoptosis of cells. These findings demonstrate that, by rebuilding the core modules of natural K+ channels in artificial systems, the structures, transport behaviors, and physiological functions of natural K+ channels can be mimicked in synthetic channels.

Abstract
Strategies to generate heteromeric peptidic ensembles via a social self-sorting process are limited. Herein, we report a crystal packing-inspired social self-sorting strategy broadly applicable to diverse types of H-bonded peptidic frameworks. Specifically, a crystal structure of H-bonded alkyl chain-appended monopeptides reveals an inter-chain separation distance of 4.8 Å dictated by the H-bonded amide groups, which is larger than 4.1 Å separation distance desired by the tightly packed straight alkyl chains. This incompatibility results in loosely packed alkyl chains, prompting us to investigate and validate the feasibility of applying bulky tert-butyl groups, modified with an anion-binding group, to alternatively interpenetrate the straight alkyl chains, modified with a crown ether group. Structurally, this social self-sorting approach generates highly stable hetero-oligomeric ensembles, having alternated anion- and cation-binding units vertically aligned to the same side. Functionally, these hetero-oligomeric ensembles promote transmembrane transport of cations, anions and more interestingly zwitterionic species such as amino acids.

Abstract
A class of artificial K+ channels formed by pillararene-cyclodextrin hybrid molecules have been designed and synthesized. These channels efficiently inserted into lipid bilayers and displayed high selectivity for K+ over Na+ in fluorescence and electrophysiological experiments. The cation transport selectivity of the artificial channels is tunable by varying the length of the linkers between pillararene and cyclodexrin. The shortest channel showed specific transmembrane transport preference for K+ over all alkali metal ions (selective sequence: K+ > Cs+ > Rb+ > Na+ > Li+ ), and is rarely observed for artificial K+ channels. The high selectivity of this artificial channel for K+ over Na+ ensures specific transmembrane translocation of K+ , and generated stable membrane potential across lipid bilayers.

Abstract
Self-assembled alkyl-ureido-benzo-15-crown-5-ethers are selective ionophores for K+ cations, which are preferred to Na+ cations. The transport mechanism is determined by the optimal coordination rather than classical dimensional compatibility between the crown ether hole and the cation diameter. Herein, we demonstrate that systematic changes of the structure lead to unexpected modifications in the cation-transport activity and suffice to produce adaptive selection. We show that the main contribution to performance arises from optimal constraints on the conformational freedom, which are determined by the binding macrocycles, the nature of the hydrogen-bonding groups, and the hydrophobic tails. Simple changes to the flexible 15-crown-5-ether lead to selective carriers for Na+ . Hydrophobic stabilization of the channels through mutual interactions between lipids and variable hydrophobic tails appears to be an important cause of increased activity. Oppositely, restricted translocation is achieved when constrained hydrogen-bonded macrocyclic relays are less dynamic in a pore superstructure.
