DNA-functionalized silicon nitride nanopores for sequence-specific recognition of DNA biosensor
Nanopores have been proven to be novel and versatile single-molecule sensors for individual unlabeled biopolymer detection and characterization. In the present study, a relatively large silicon nitride (Si3N4) nanopore with a diameter of approximately 60 nm was fabricated successfully using a focused Ga ion beam (FIB). We demonstrated a simple ex situ silanization procedure to control the size ...
متن کاملA MODEL FOR THE BASIC HELIX- LOOPHELIX MOTIF AND ITS SEQUENCE SPECIFIC RECOGNITION OF DNA
A three dimensional model of the basic Helix-Loop-Helix motif and its sequence specific recognition of DNA is described. The basic-helix I is modeled as a continuous ?-helix because no ?-helix breaking residue is found between the basic region and the first helix. When the basic region of the two peptide monomers are aligned in the successive major groove of the cognate DNA, the hydrophobi...
متن کاملRegulating DNA translocation through functionalized soft nanopores.
Nanopores have emerged as promising next-generation devices for DNA sequencing technology. The two major challenges in such devices are: (i) find an efficient way to raise the DNA capture rate prior to funnelling a nanopore, and (ii) reduce the translocation velocity inside it so that single base resolution can be attained efficiently. To achieve these, a novel soft nanopore comprising a solid-...
متن کاملK(+) , Na(+) , and Mg(2+) on DNA translocation in silicon nitride nanopores.
In this work, we report on how salt concentration and cation species affect DNA translocation in voltage-biased silicon nitride nanopores. The translocation of dsDNA in linear, circular, and supercoiled forms was measured in salt solutions containing KCl, NaCl, and MgCl(2) . As the KCl concentrations were decreased from 1 to 0.1 M, the time taken by a DNA molecule to pass through a nanopore was...
متن کاملTwo Color DNA Barcode Detection in Photoluminescence Suppressed Silicon Nitride Nanopores
Optical sensing of solid-state nanopores is a relatively new approach that can enable high-throughput, multicolor readout from a collection of nanopores. It is therefore highly attractive for applications such as nanopore-based DNA sequencing and genotyping using DNA barcodes. However, to date optical readout has been plagued by the need to achieve sufficiently high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) ...
