Abstract:Nanopore biosensors, as an extremely sensitive tool, are widely applied to single-molecule analysis. Compared with the commonly used α-hemolysin, aerolysin nanopore possess a narrower channel, which distributes the abundant charged residues in the lumen. We replaced the commonly used potassium cations (K + ) with tetramethylammonium cations (TMA + ) to explore the cation effects. Experimental results demonstrate that the blockage of oligonucleotides in the TMA + system is distinctly more considerable than that… Show more
