Outer membrane protein G: engineering a quiet pore for biosensing

Bacterial outer membrane porins have a robust ?-barrel structure and therefore show potential for use as stochastic sensors based on single-molecule detection. The monomeric porin OmpG is especially attractive compared with multisubunit proteins because appropriate modifications of the pore can be e...
