The rationally designed large membrane-spanning DNA nanopore NP. a The pore is composed of squarely arranged DNA duplexes, which are illustrated as blue and orange cylinders. The latter carry cholesterol lipid anchors for membrane insertion. Protein trypsin (green) can pass via the pore from the cis to the trans side of the membrane. b Top-down and side views of the nanopore. c Cross-sectional side view illustrating the geometry of the pore lumen with annotated dimensions
