Journal ArticleDOI
Electrostatic focusing of unlabelled DNA into nanoscale pores using a salt gradient
TL;DR: It is shown that application of a 20-fold salt gradient enables detection of picomolar DNA concentrations at high throughput, and the salt gradients enhance the electric field, focusing more molecules into the pore, thereby advancing the possibility of analyzing unamplified DNA samples using nanopores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the conductance and DNA blockade of solid-state nanopores.
Stefan W. Kowalczyk,Alexander Y. Grosberg,Yitzhak Rabin,Yitzhak Rabin,Yitzhak Rabin,Cees Dekker +5 more
TL;DR: An exact solution for G of an hourglass-shaped pore is presented, which agrees very well with the measurements without any adjustable parameters, and which is an improvement over the cylindrical approximation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast Translocation of Proteins through Solid State Nanopores
Calin Plesa,Stefan W. Kowalczyk,R. Zinsmeester,Alexander Y. Grosberg,Yitzhak Rabin,Cees Dekker +5 more
TL;DR: A one-dimensional first-passage time-distribution model supports this and suggests that the bulk of the proteins translocate on time scales faster than can be detected, and discusses the implications for protein characterization using solid-state nanopores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanopore Unzipping of Individual DNA Hairpin Molecules
TL;DR: The results are in agreement with the approximately logV dependence at high V (where V is the loading rate) observed by other methods, and the extension of these measurements to lower loading rates reveals a much weaker dependence on V.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crumpled globule model of the three-dimensional structure of DNA
TL;DR: It is argued that in order to maintain the biological function of DNA confined inside the cell nucleus, its spatial structure has to be unknotted, of the so-called crumpled globule type.
