Graphical Abstract

Transport systems: Long-range amplification of G-quadruplex self-organization by K+ ion templating into double dynameric macroscopic films is described. The ordered membrane films (see image) contribute to fast electron/proton or Na+/K+ transport by the formation of directional conduction pathways.
