TL;DR: It is shown that coating nanopores with fluid bilayer lipids allows the pore diameters to be fine-tuned in sub-nanometre increments, and incorporation of mobile ligands in the lipid conferred specificity and slowed down the translocation of targeted proteins sufficiently to time-resolve translocation events of individual proteins.

TL;DR: The current state of applications of pore-forming peptides and proteins in nanomedicine, sensing, and nanoelectronics is reviewed.

TL;DR: An electric-eel-inspired power concept that uses gradients of ions between miniature polyacrylamide hydrogel compartments bounded by a repeating sequence of cation- and anion-selectivehydrogel membranes suggests that artificial electric organs could be used to power next-generation implant materials such as pacemakers, implantable sensors, or prosthetic devices in hybrids of living and non-living systems.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the redox behavior of cytochrome c (cyt c) adsorbed to gold electrodes modified with self-assembled monolayers (SAMs).

TL;DR: Catalysts comprising manganese-porphyrins carrying cyclodextrin binding groups are able to perform hydroxylations with substrate selectivity and regio- and stereoselectivity and high catalytic turnovers, permitting attack on geometrically accessible saturated carbons of steroids in the presence of secondary carbinol groups and carbon-carbon double bonds.
