Single-molecule protein unfolding in solid state nanopores.
We use single silicon nitride nanopores to study folded, partially folded, and unfolded single proteins by measuring their excluded volumes. The DNA-calibrated translocation signals of beta-lactoglobulin and histidine-containing phosphocarrier protein match quantitatively with that predicted by a simple sum of the partial volumes of the amino acids in the polypeptide segment inside the pore whe...
متن کاملSensing Single Protein Molecules with Solid-State Nanopores
This chapter is focused on the development of experiments and theory of using solid-state nanopores for sensing single protein molecules in their native and unfolded states. Proteins serve diverse roles such as transport carriers, catalysts, molecular motors, cellular structural support, and others that make life possible. Because of these widely differing roles, proteins have an enormously div...
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...
متن کاملChemically modified solid-state nanopores.
Nanopores are extremely sensitive single-molecule sensors. Recently, electron beams have been used to fabricate synthetic nanopores in thin solid-state membranes with subnanometer resolution. Here we report a new class of chemically modified nanopore sensors. We describe two approaches for monolayer coating of nanopores: (1) self-assembly from solution, in which nanopores approximately 10 nm di...
