A highly permeable yet highly selective pore‐spanning biomimetic membrane embedded with aquaporin Z is molecularly designed and constructed via a combination of pressure‐assisted vesicle adsorption and covalent‐conjugation‐driven vesicle fusion on a porous support. This approach represents a significant breakthrough in the architecture of biomimetic membranes embedded with aquaporin in a planar form.
