Can Graphene Bilayers Be the Membrane Mimetic Materials? Ion Channels in Graphene-Based Nanostructures

“…In the synthesis of the biomimetic graphenebased ISFET structures an important aspect is the compatibility with the channelome, since the carbon nanostructure-based ISFET are used in the electrophysical studies in neurocytology [110] by contact formation with the neurons, which serve as the ion-exchange structures between the channelome and FET, and are responsive to the extracellular medium and the mediated stimulation/inhibition of the iontransport channel activity [111]. Recent data on the possibility of the biomimetic ion channel function modeling and their introduction into the graphene capsules and membranelike structures, by 2015 made it possible to consider the graphene-based capsules with the ion-selective channels as the embryo protocells [112,113]. Though the above interpretation is doubtful, given that the early protocell models were actually simple phospholipid membrane structures [114][115][116], a membrane mimetic nature of this abstraction is clear, while it is not a breakthrough among the numerous non-lipid [117], membrane-free [118] and electrostaticallygated [119], inorganic [120,121] mineral [122,123] and other protocells, illustrating the recent tendency to the biomembrane substitution by its functional alternative.…”
