Abstract:The rapid progress in nanopore sensing has sparked interest in protein sequencing. Despite recent notable advancements in amino acid recognition using nanopores, chemical modifications usually employed in this process still need further refinements. One of the challenges is to enhance the chemical specificity to avoid downstream misidentification of amino acids. By employing adamantane to label proteinogenic amino acids, we developed an approach to fingerprint individual amino acids using the wild-type α-hemol… Show more
