Abstract: Mechanical stress is a ubiquitous stimulus sensed by membrane proteins, but rarely by synthetic molecules. Inspired by mechano-sensitive ion channels found in cell membranes, tension-responsive transmembrane multiblock amphiphiles were developed. In membranes, a single-transmembrane amphiphile… read more here.
