TCDB, the most sophisticated classification of transport proteins to date, classify ion channels as a heterogenous subset of all '''α-type channels''', whose singular property is to consist mainly of [[alpha helix|α-helices]] that span the membrane. They are distinct in this from the [[beta-barrel porins]], but also from non-ribosomally synthesized channels like [[gramicidin]], [[polyglutamine]] or [[digitoxin]]. All these proteins are '''passive''' transport proteins. | TCDB, the most sophisticated classification of transport proteins to date, classify ion channels as a heterogenous subset of all '''α-type channels''', whose singular property is to consist mainly of [[alpha helix|α-helices]] that span the membrane.

Membrane transport proteins are notoriously difficult to crystallize while in a working state. So, it's no surprise that there are preciously few structure data for ion channels. At the moment, the following α-type ion channels have been at least partly resolved: | Membrane transport proteins are notoriously difficult to crystallize while in a working state.
