Single channel electrophysiological studies have been carried out to elucidate the underlying interactions during the translocation of polypeptides through protein channels. For this we used OmpF from the outer cell membrane of E. coli and arginine-based peptides of different charges, lengths and covalently linked polyethylene glycol as a model system. In order to reveal the fast kinetics of peptide...
