A long-held goal in sequencing has been to use a voltage-biased nanoscale pore in a
membrane to measure the passage of a linear, single-stranded (ss) DNA or RNA molecule …

In nanopore analytics, individual molecules pass through a single nanopore giving rise to
detectable temporary blockades in ionic pore current. Reflecting its simplicity, nanopore …

Inspired by nature, molecular communications (MC), ie, the use of molecules to encode,
transmit, and receive information, stands as the most promising communication paradigm to …

The sequencing of individual DNA strands with nanopores is under investigation as a rapid,
low-cost platform in which bases are identified in order as the DNA strand is transported …

Membrane proteins mediate processes that are fundamental for the flourishing of biological
cells. Membrane-embedded transporters move ions and larger solutes across membranes; …

A reflection of the significant advances in the field, this book discusses the macromolecular
basis of polymer translocation that have emerged based on experimentation, new models …

Nanometer-sized pores can be used to detect and characterize biopolymers, such as DNA,
RNA, and polypeptides, with single-molecule resolution. Experiments performed with the 1.5 …

With the continued improvement of sequencing technologies, the prospect of genome-based
medicine is now at the forefront of scientific research. To realize this potential, however, a …

Nanopores are extremely sensitive single-molecule sensors. Recently, electron beams have
been used to fabricate synthetic nanopores in thin solid-state membranes with …

Both protein and solid-state nanopores are under intense investigation for the analysis of
nucleic acids. A crucial advantage of protein nanopores is that site-directed mutagenesis …
