摘要: The present disclosure provides apparatus and methods for determining the sequence of a nucleic acid. The apparatus comprises electrodes that form a tunnel gap through which the nucleic acid can pass. The electrodes comprise a reagent that is capable of selectively interacting with a nucleobase of the nucleic acid sequence. When the reagent interacts with a nucleobase, a detectable signal is produced and used to identify the nucleobase of the nucleic acid. Advantageously, the apparatus of this disclosure is specific to identifying nucleic acids.
