Published today in @Nature, we describe an approach for single-molecule protein reading on @nanopore arrays. By utilizing ClpX unfoldase to ratchet proteins through a CsgG nanopore, we achieved single-amino-acid sensitivity. nature.com/articles/s4158…

The variation of the electric field around a DNA duplex is surprisingly complex. Now, a nonlocal electrostatic theory can explain most of the features seen in all-atom MD simulations. Many thanks to Alexei Kornyshev, @JonathanGHedley @KushCoshic and @LeverhulmeTrust
Physical Review X@PhysRevX
A theoretical analysis of the complex electric field around DNA uncovers the origin of oscillating field patterns and sheds light on the role of the solvent that surrounds the DNA. Read go.aps.org/47hR1Bn @JonathanGHedley @KushCoshic @aksimentievLab #PRXBio, #PRXChem

Have a nanopore but not happy with its ion selectivity or electroosmotic effect? You can easily improve both! Find out how: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…
Thanks to @WanunuLab and Zuzanna Siwy for this great collaboration. Congrats to Behzad on another cover!

@KeyserLab @FilipBoskovic12 Somewhere along the way, we observed a rare event: a nucleic acid duplex biting its own tail! Watch the movie to the end. The A-form RNA/DNA duplex was not so hungry:) #Ouroboros

Well, this project went from "Which molecule moves faster through a nanopore?" to "What is speed? That is, the answer depends on whether you measure translocation speed in base pairs/sec or nm/sec. Many thanks to @Keyserlab and @FilipBoskovic12 for a wonderful collaboration.

_1/n Honestly, it has been an incredible experience to scratch the surface of the physics behind our applied work! Building on the work of nanopore crew, we've uncovered some unexpected clues about the electrophoretic translocation of duplexes and how their form affects velocity!

In a study led by @FilipBoskovic12 we examined how the electrophoretic transport of RNA:DNA and DNA through nanopores depends on the contour length rather than the number of base pairs. Nice blend of experiments and simulations! @aksimentievLab @acsnano 🧬🕳️⚛️ @Cambridge_Uni
