Nanoporous AAO substrate and macroscopic alignment of lipid bilayers inside the nanopores for OS ssNMR. (A) Cartoon of nanotubular bilayer with inserted Pf1 protein inside a nanopore. (B) Histograms of the pore diameters obtained from SEM images of Whatman Anodisc (blue, magnified fivefold; d = 227 ± 53 nm) and in-house AAO (green; d = 81 ± 4 nm). (Solid lines) Best fits to Gaussian distributions. SEM images of Whatman Anodisc from the side of narrower pores (C) and in-house homogeneous AAO (D).
