Electronic control of H+ current in a bioprotonic device with Gramicidin A and Alamethicin
Conventional electronics use electrons as charge carriers whereas biological systems use ions, confounding integration of electronics with biology. Here the authors show voltage-regulated flow of protons across a supported lipid bilayer using the ion channel Gramicidin A and the voltage-gated ion ch...
