experimental part, p. 7423 - 7428 (2010/10/01)
A cholapod receptor possessing urea binding sites at C3, C7, and C12 positions and with an intrinsic chiral structure was synthesized, and the binding abilities toward amino acids in both l- and d- forms (Trp, Phe, Leu, and Ala) were studied using 1
Structure-activity relationships in cholapod anion carriers: Enhanced transmembrane chloride transport through substituent tuning

Chloride transport by a series of steroid-based "cholapod" receptors/carriers was studied in vesicles. The principal method involved preincorporation of the cholapods in the vesicle membranes, and the use of lucigenin fluorescence quenching to detect inwa

(Figure Presented) Crystals with broad robust channels are rare, especially if self-assembled without the aid of metal ions. Three such crystals were prepared based on a common steroid motif. The channels formed are chiral, directional, aligned, and wide
