Abstract

Just lifting a finger involves the coordinated opening and closing of billions of ion channels. These natural nanotubes play an essential role in the physiology of all living creatures, from bacteria to humans [1, 2]. By providing for the exchange of ions across cellular membranes, they control a vast range of biological processes, and their dysfunction leads to numerous diseases.
