METHOD OF CHARACTERIZING A TARGET POLYNUCLEOTIDE USING A TRANSMEMBRANE PORE AND MOLECULAR MOTOR

摘要

The invention relates to a new method of characterising a target polynucleotide. The method uses a pore and a Hel308 helicase or a molecular motor which is capable of binding to the target polynucleotide at an internal nucleotide. The helicase or molecular motor controls the movement of the target polynucleotide through the pore.
