چکیده
Abstract Membrane‐spanning nanopores are used in label‐free single‐molecule sensing and next‐generation portable nucleic acid sequencing, as powerful research tools biology, biophysics, synthetic biology. Naturally occurring protein peptide pores, well inorganic nanopores, these applications, with their limitations. The structural functional repertoire of can be considerably expanded by functionalising existing pores DNA strands creating an entirely new class nanotechnology. This review outlines progress this area developments to open up applications.

DNA-based cytotoxic agents: Nanopores composed of folded DNA featuring a hydrophobic belt of ethyl phosphorothioate groups insert into bilayer membranes and kill cancer cells. The mode by which the pores achieve cell killing is elucidated with confocal microscopy.
متن کاملDetecting DNA Depurination with Solid-State Nanopores
Among the different types of DNA damage that occur endogenously in the cell, depurination is especially prevalent. These lesions can initiate mutagenesis and have been implicated in a variety of diseases, including cancer. Here, we demonstrate a new approach for the detection of depurination at the single-molecule scale using solid-state nanopores. We induce depurination in short duplex DNA usi...
متن کاملDNA translocation through graphene nanopores.
We report on DNA translocations through nanopores created in graphene membranes. Devices consist of 1-5 nm thick graphene membranes with electron-beam sculpted nanopores from 5 to 10 nm in diameter. Due to the thin nature of the graphene membranes, we observe larger blocked currents than for traditional solid-state nanopores. However, ionic current noise levels are several orders of magnitude l...
متن کاملDNA translocation through graphene nanopores.
Nanopores--nanosized holes that can transport ions and molecules--are very promising devices for genomic screening, in particular DNA sequencing. Solid-state nanopores currently suffer from the drawback, however, that the channel constituting the pore is long, approximately 100 times the distance between two bases in a DNA molecule (0.5 nm for single-stranded DNA). This paper provides proof of ...
متن کاملModeling nanopores for sequencing DNA.
Using nanopores to sequence DNA rapidly and at a low cost has the potential to radically transform the field of genomic research. However, despite all the exciting developments in the field, sequencing DNA using a nanopore has yet to be demonstrated. Among the many problems that hinder development of the nanopore sequencing methods is the inability of current experimental techniques to visualiz...
