Nanopore Sequencing to Identify DNA Bases
A British company has demonstrated an important step for a new sequencing technique.
A DNA base (red) passes through a protein tunnel lined with a sugar (blue and green bubbles). The sugar slows down the DNA as it moves through the pore, allowing time for the base to be identified.
