Zusammenfassung:Inspired by the nuclear pore complex (NPC), herein we have established a biomimetic high‐flux protein delivery system via the ingenious introduction of pillar[5]arene‐based host–guest system into one side of artificial hour‐glass shaped nanochannel. With a transport flux of 660 lysozymes per minute, the system provides efficient high‐flux protein transport at a rate which is significantly higher than that of an unmodified nanochannel and conventional bilateral symmetrical modified nanochannels. In view of these promising results, the use of artificial nanochannel to improve protein transport not only presents a new potential chemical model for biological research and better understanding of protein transport behavior in the living systems, but also provides a high‐flux protein transporter device, which may have applications in the design of protein drug release systems, protein separation systems and microfluidics in the near future. Here we established a biomimetic high‐flux protein delivery system via the introduction of the pillar[5]arene‐based host–guest systems into one side of the hour‐glass shaped nanochannels. With a transport flux of 660 lysozymes per minute, the system provides efficient high‐flux protein transport at a rate which is significantly higher than that of an unmodified nanochannel and conventional bilateral symmetrical modified nanochannels.
