Electrical characterization of protein molecules by a solid-state nanopore.
The authors measured ionic current blockages caused by protein translocation through voltage-biased silicon nitride nanopores in ionic solution. By calculating the mean amplitude, time duration, and the integral of current blockages, they estimated the relative charge and size of protein molecules at a single molecule level. The authors measured the change in protein charge of bovine serum albu...
متن کاملDNA molecules and configurations in a solid-state nanopore microscope.
A nanometre-scale pore in a solid-state membrane provides a new way of electronically probing the structure of single linear polymers, including those of biological interest in their native environments. Previous work with biological protein pores wide enough to let through and sense single-stranded DNA molecules demonstrates the power of using nanopores, but many future tasks and applications ...
متن کاملRecapturing and trapping single molecules with a solid-state nanopore.
The development of solid-state nanopores, inspired by their biological counterparts, shows great potential for the study of single macromolecules. Applications such as DNA sequencing and the exploration of protein folding require control of the dynamics of the molecule's interaction with the pore, but DNA capture by a solid-state nanopore is not well understood. By recapturing individual molecu...
متن کاملVelocity of DNA during translocation through a solid-state nanopore.
While understanding translocation of DNA through a solid-state nanopore is vital for exploiting its potential for sensing and sequencing at the single-molecule level, surprisingly little is known about the dynamics of the propagation of DNA through the nanopore. Here we use linear double-stranded DNA molecules, assembled by the DNA origami technique, with markers at known positions in order to ...
متن کاملDetecting single stranded DNA with a solid state nanopore.
Voltage biased solid-state nanopores are used to detect and characterize individual single stranded DNA molecules of fixed micrometer length by operating a nanopore detector at pH values greater than approximately 11.6. The distribution of observed molecular event durations and blockade currents shows that a significant fraction of the events obey a rule of constant event charge deficit (ecd) i...
