  bibo_abstract:
  - 'β-Barrel nanopores are involved in crucial biological processes, from ATP export
    in mitochondria to bacterial resistance, and represent a promising platform for
    emerging sequencing technologies. However, in contrast to ion channels, the understanding
    of the fundamental principles governing ion transport through these nanopores
    remains largely unexplored. Here we integrate experimental, numerical and theoretical
    approaches to elucidate ion transport mechanisms in β-barrel nanopores. We identify
    and characterize two distinct nonlinear phenomena: open-pore rectification and
    gating. Through extensive mutation analysis of aerolysin nanopores, we demonstrate
    that open-pore rectification is caused by ionic accumulation driven by the distribution
    of lumen charges. In addition, we provide converging evidence suggesting that
    gating is controlled by electric fields dissociating counterions from lumen charges,
    promoting local structural deformations. Our findings establish a rigorous framework
    for characterizing and understanding ion transport processes in protein-based
    nanopores, enabling the design of adaptable nanofluidic biotechnologies. We illustrate
    this by optimizing an aerolysin mutant for computing applications.@eng'
