Geometric Effects on Nanopore Creation in Graphene and on the Impact-withstanding Efficiency of Graphene Nanosheets [PDF]

open access: yesMechanics of Advanced Composite Structures, 2018
Single- and multilayer graphene sheets (MLGSs) are projectile-resisting materials that can be bombarded by nanoparticles to produce graphene sheets of various sizes and distributions of nanopores.

Models and information-theoretic bounds for nanopore sequencing

open access: yes, 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

DNA methylation-calling tools for Oxford Nanopore sequencing: a survey and human epigenome-wide evaluation

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2021
Nanopore long-read sequencing technology greatly expands the capacity of long-range, single-molecule DNA-modification detection. A growing number of analytical tools have been developed to detect DNA methylation from nanopore sequencing reads.

Liquid biopsy epigenetics: establishing a molecular profile based on cell‐free DNA

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragments in plasma from cancer patients carry epigenetic signatures reflecting their cells of origin. These epigenetic features include DNA methylation, nucleosome modifications, and variations in fragmentation. This review describes the biological properties of each feature and explores optimal strategies for harnessing cfDNA ...

Homopolish: a method for the removal of systematic errors in nanopore sequencing by homologous polishing

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2021
Nanopore sequencing has been widely used for the reconstruction of microbial genomes. Owing to higher error rates, errors on the genome are corrected via neural networks trained by Nanopore reads. However, the systematic errors usually remain uncorrected.

Single molecule sensing by nanopores and nanopore devices [PDF]

open access: yesThe Analyst, 2010
Molecular-scale pore structures, called nanopores, can be assembled by protein ion channels through genetic engineering or be artificially fabricated on solid substrates using fashion nanotechnology. When target molecules interact with the functionalized lumen of a nanopore, they characteristically block the ion pathway.

ATF4‐mediated stress response as a therapeutic vulnerability in chordoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We screened 5 chordoma cell lines against 100+ inhibitors of epigenetic and metabolic pathways and kinases and identified halofuginone, a tRNA synthetase inhibitor. Mechanistically halofuginone induces an integrated stress response, with eIF2alpha phosphorylation, activation of ATF4 and its target genes CHOP, ASNS, INHBE leading to cell death ...

Borg extrachromosomal elements of methane-oxidizing archaea have conserved and expressed genetic repertoires

open access: yesNature Communications
Borgs are huge extrachromosomal elements (ECE) of anaerobic methane-consuming “Candidatus Methanoperedens” archaea. Here, we used nanopore sequencing to validate published complete genomes curated from short reads and to reconstruct new genomes.

Electrokinetic Lattice Boltzmann solver coupled to Molecular Dynamics: application to polymer translocation

open access: yes, 2017
We develop a theoretical and computational approach to deal with systems that involve a disparate range of spatio-temporal scales, such as those comprised of colloidal particles or polymers moving in a fluidic molecular environment. Our approach is based
