SDS-assisted protein transport through solid-state nanopores.
Using nanopores for single-molecule sequencing of proteins - similar to nanopore-based sequencing of DNA - faces multiple challenges, including unfolding of the complex tertiary structure of the proteins and enforcing their unidirectional translocation through nanopores. Here, we combine molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with single-molecule experiments to investigate the utility of SDS (Sodi...
متن کاملA Study of Protein Filaments Sliding through Solid-State Nanopores
Solid-state nanopores have been used extensively over the past decade as powerful tools to study the structure and dynamics of single molecules of DNA. The use of nanopores has mostly been confined to the study of DNA due to the hope that they may eventually be used to cheaply sequence DNA. We have begun extending nanopores to the study of protein filaments, specifically filamentous actin (Fact...
متن کاملDNA Translocations through Solid-State Plasmonic Nanopores
Nanopores enable label-free detection and analysis of single biomolecules. Here, we investigate DNA translocations through a novel type of plasmonic nanopore based on a gold bowtie nanoantenna with a solid-state nanopore at the plasmonic hot spot. Plasmonic excitation of the nanopore is found to influence both the sensor signal (nanopore ionic conductance blockade during DNA translocation) and ...
متن کاملMonitoring protein adsorption with solid-state nanopores.
Solid-state nanopores have been used to perform measurements at the single-molecule level to examine the local structure and flexibility of nucleic acids, the unfolding of proteins, and binding affinity of different ligands. By coupling these nanopores to the resistive-pulse technique, such measurements can be done under a wide variety of conditions and without the need for labeling. In the res...
متن کاملNoise in solid-state nanopores.
We study ionic current fluctuations in solid-state nanopores over a wide frequency range and present a complete description of the noise characteristics. At low frequencies (f approximately < 100 Hz) we observe 1/f-type of noise. We analyze this low-frequency noise at different salt concentrations and find that the noise power remarkably scales linearly with the inverse number of charge carrier...
