    摘要: This disclosure provides systems and methods for molecular identification and polymer (e.g., nucleic acid) sequencing using nanopores. The polymer may be passed through or in proximity to the nanopore and various subunits of the polymer may affect the current flowing through the nanopore. The various subunits may be identified by measuring the current at a plurality of voltages applied across the nanopore and/or membrane. In some cases, the polymerization of tagged nucleotides presents tag molecules to the nanopore that can be identified by measuring the current at a plurality of voltages applied across the nanopore and/or membrane. Also provided herein are systems and methods for sequencing both the sense and anti-sense strand of a double stranded nucleic acid molecule with a nanopore and methods for using ribonucleic acid (RNA) speed bump molecules to slow the passage of a nucleic acid molecule through or in proximity to a nanopore.

    摘要: Described herein are methods and devices for capturing and determining the identity of molecules using nanopores. The molecules can be counted, sorted and/or binned rapidly in a parallel manner using a large number of nanopores (e.g., 132,000 nanopores reading 180 million molecules in 1 hour). This fast capture and reading of a molecule can be used to capture probe molecules or other molecules that have been generated to represent an original, hard to detect molecule or portions of an original molecule. Precise counting of sample molecules or surrogates for sample molecules can occur. The methods and devices described herein can, among other things, replace flow cytometers and other counting instruments (e.g., while providing increased precision and throughput relative to a flow cytometer). In some cases, the devices and methods capture and hold particular molecules or surrogates of molecules in the nanopores and then eject them into clean solution to perform a capture, sorting, and binning function similar to flow cytometers.

    摘要: A method of identifying a molecule is disclosed. A molecule is drawn to a nanopore by applying a first voltage signal to a pair of electrodes during a first period, wherein the first voltage signal causes a first ionic current through the nanopore that is indicative of a property of a portion of the molecule proximate to the nanopore. The molecule is released from the nanopore by applying a second voltage signal to the pair of electrodes during a second period, wherein the second voltage signal causes a second ionic current through the nanopore. The first period and the second period are determined based at least in part on a net ionic current through the nanopore comprising the first ionic current and the second ionic current.
