AbstractA new approach to single-molecule DNA sequencing in which dNTPs, released by pyrophosphorolysis from the strand to be sequenced, are captured in microdroplets and read directly could have substantial advantages over current sequence-by-synthesis methods; however, there is no existing method sensitive enough to detect a single nucleotide in a microdroplet. We have developed a method for dNTP detection based on an enzymatic two-stage reaction which produces a robust fluorescent signal that is easy to detect and process. By taking advantage of the inherent specificity of DNA polymerases and ligases, coupled with volume restriction in microdroplets, this method allows us to simultaneously detect the presence of and distinguish between, the four natural dNTPs at the single-molecule level, with negligible cross-talk.

Protein Molecules

A protein is a kind of major biomacromolecule of life. Its sequence, structure, and content in organisms contains quite important information for normal or pathological physiological process. However, research of proteomics is facing certain obstacles. Only a few technologies are available for protein analysis, and their application is limited by chemical modification or the need for a large amount of sample. Solid-state nanopore overcomes some shortcomings of the existing technology, and has the ability to detect proteins at a single-molecule level, with its high sensitivity and robustness of device. Many works on detection of protein molecules and discriminating structure have been carried out in recent years. Single-molecule protein sequencing techniques based on solid-state nanopore are also been proposed and developed. Here, we categorize and describe these efforts and progress, as well as discuss their advantages and drawbacks.

Detection Of Biomolecules

Biological cell membranes contain various types of ion channels and transmembrane pores in the 1–100 nm range, which are vital for cellular function. Individual channels can be probed electrically, as demonstrated by Neher and Sakmann in 1976 using the patch-clamp technique [Neher and Sakmann (1976) Nature 260, 799–802]. Since the 1990s, this work has inspired the use of protein or solid-state nanopores as inexpensive and ultrafast sensors for the detection of biomolecules, including DNA, RNA and proteins, but with particular focus on DNA sequencing. Solid-state nanopores in particular have the advantage that the pore size can be tailored to the analyte in question and that they can be modified using semi-conductor processing technology. This establishes solid-state nanopores as a new class of single-molecule biosensor devices, in some cases with submolecular resolution. In the present review, we discuss a few of the most important recent developments in this field and how they might be applied to studying protein–protein and protein–DNA interactions or in the context of ultra-fast DNA sequencing.

ABSTRACTG-quadruplexes (Gq) are guanine-rich DNA structures formed by single-stranded DNA. They are of paramount significance to gene expression regulation, but also drug targets for cancer and human viruses. Current ensemble and single-molecule methods require fluorescent labels, which can affect Gq folding kinetics. Here we introduce, a single-molecule Gq nanopore assay (smGNA) to detect Gqs and kinetics of Gq formation. We use ~5 nm solid-state nanopores to detect various Gq structural variants attached to designed DNA carriers. Gqs can be identified by localizing their positions along designed DNA carriers establishing smGNA as a tool for Gq mapping. In addition, smGNA allows for discrimination of (un-)folded Gq structures, provides insights into single-molecule kinetics of G-quadruplex folding, and probes quadruplex-to-duplex structural transitions. smGNA can elucidate the formation of G-quadruplexes at the single-molecule level without labelling and has potential implications on the study of these structures both in single-stranded DNA and in genomic samples.
