Abstract

The general usefulness of rigid-rod molecules rather than ß-sheets as molecular staves for the construction of artificial ß-barrels with preserved structural and functional plasticity is described. Aspects of the structural plasticity of rigid-rod ß-barrels are elaborated in more detail with respect to barrel truncation, elongation, contraction and expansion in water and/or bilayer membranes.
