Crystal structure of an invertebrate cytolysin pore reveals unique properties and mechanism of assembly

Nature Communications, 2016
Pore-forming toxins act by forming oligomeric pores in lipid membranes. Here the authors report the crystal structure of the lysenin pore, providing insights into the assembly and function of the pore in addition to suggesting that its properties make ...

Modeling of single-particle translocation through a low-aspect-ratio nanopore

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2019
A theoretical model for the motion of tiny spherical particles in a nanopore device is developed. The nanopore has a low aspect ratio, and the particles have a radius slightly smaller than that of the nanopore.

Extraction of Organic Compounds From Lacustrine Oil-Prone Shales and the Effect on Nanopore

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Lacustrine oil-prone shale at the oil-generation stage develops a large number of nanopores; however, the influence of fluid–shale interactions on the nanopores of lacustrine shale is poorly understood.

High Prevalence of blaCTXM–1/IncI1-Iγ/ST3 Plasmids in Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase-Producing Escherichia coli Isolates Collected From Domestic Animals in Guadeloupe (French West Indies)

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) have been classified in the group of resistant bacteria of highest priority. We determined the prevalence of ESBL-E collected in feces from household and shelter pets in Guadeloupe ...

Ultrarapid and high-resolution HLA class I typing using transposase-based nanopore sequencing applied in pharmacogenetic testing

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Nanopore sequencing has been examined as a method for rapid and high-resolution human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing in recent years. We aimed to apply ultrarapid nanopore-based HLA typing for HLA class I alleles associated with drug hypersensitivity ...

Models and information-theoretic bounds for nanopore sequencing

, 2018
Nanopore sequencing is an emerging new technology for sequencing DNA, which can read long fragments of DNA (~50,000 bases) in contrast to most current short-read sequencing technologies which can only read hundreds of bases. While nanopore sequencers can
