Received: 9 May 2012; in revised form: 5 June 2012 / Accepted: 16 June 2012 / Published: 11 July 2012 Abstract: Synthetic biomimetic membranes provide biological environments to membrane proteins. By exploiting the central roles of biological membranes, it is possible to devise biosensors, drug delivery systems, and nanocontainers using a biomimetic membrane system integrated with functional proteins. Biomimetic membranes can be created with synthetic lipids or block copolymers. These amphiphili
