Multiple rereads of single proteins at single–amino acid resolution using nanopores

Abstract: Reading amino acids by nanopore Nanopore technology enables sensing of minute chemical changes at the single-molecule level by detecting differences in an ion current as molecules are drawn through a membrane-embedded pore. The sensitivity is sufficient to discriminate between nucleotide bases in nanopore sequencing, and other applications of this technology are promising. Brinkerhoff et al . developed a nanopore-based, single-molecule approach in which a protein … Show more

“…Following the similar approach in our previous studies [ 17 , 24 , 30 , 31 , 32 ], we performed a pre-equilibrium simulation of the conformation of each IDP fragment from solution to adsorption on a BC 3 nanosheet, and then extended the BC 3 nanosheet (along with the peptide) to construct the BC 3 /C 3 N/BC 3 planar heterostructure. After that, the entire system is placed in a box with a size of 16.2 × 14.1 × 5.0 nm 3 [ 3 ] and solvated with 100 mM KCl electrolyte, which contains approximately 66,000 atoms. In addition, to explore the difference in hydrophilic or hydrophobic properties between BC 3 and C 3 N, we constructed two systems of BC 3 or C 3 N in a water box with a size of 4.9 × 4.2 × 5.0 nm 3 [ 3 ].…”

“…Harnessing of nanopore technology for applications in proteomics has been an active area of research for some time 2,25 , including the detection of PTMs [26][27][28][29] . Sequencing proteins by nanopore threading, which would in principle allow detection of PTMs in a site-specific manner, is presently in early stages of development, but still faces the lack of processive motors suitable for moving a polypeptide chain through the nanopore and of physical mechanisms for keeping an unevenly charged peptide taut through the nanopore's constriction 3,4,25,30 . Here we show that site-specific detection of histone PTMs is feasible by whole-molecule nanopore sensing of peptide fragments, requiring neither sequential threading nor uniform charge of the analyte.…”
