Nanopore analysis enables the investigation of single molecular events. A single pore (either of bacterial origin or solid state) is inserted in a membrane and isolated between two chambers. When a voltage is applied a constant current will flow through the pore. If a molecule bumps into the pore or translocates through the pore a blockade current (I) will be observed for a particular time (T). Structural and sequence information is embedded in the parameters I and T. More recently, some preliminary investigations of the translocation of peptides (alpha-helices) and proteins (HPr, 86 amino acids) have been completed in Saskatoon. Here I propose to extend these studies to investigate:

纳米孔分析使得能够研究单分子事件。将单个孔（细菌来源或固态）插入膜中并在两个腔室之间隔离。当施加电压时，恒定电流将流过孔。如果分子碰撞到孔中或易位通过孔，则将在特定时间（T）内观察到阻断电流（I）。结构和序列信息嵌入在参数I和T中。最近，在萨斯卡通已经完成了肽（α-螺旋）和蛋白质（HPr，86个氨基酸）易位的一些初步研究。在这里，我建议将这些研究扩展到调查：
