Gramicidin channels are mini-proteins composed of two tryptophan-rich subunits. The conducting channels are formed by the transbilayer dimerization of nonconducting subunits, which are tied to the bilayer/solution interface through hydrogen bonds between the indole NH groups and the phospholipid backbone
