Squalamine is not a proton ionophore
Squalamine, an aminosterol antibiotic isolated from the dogfish shark, creates relatively large defects in phospholipid bilayers, allowing the unrestricted translocation of small molecules across these compromised membranes (B.S.

Light‐Enhanced Chloride Transport by Thiourea‐Appended Molecular Motor
A molecular motor functionalized with a thiourea anion‐binding motif mediates transmembrane chloride transport. Light irradiation enhances transport efficiency by populating a more active metastable isomer, which slowly equilibrates to the initial stable isomer.
