Single-Base DNA Discrimination via Transverse Ionic Transport [PDF]
James Wilson, M. Di VentraWe suggest to discriminate single DNA bases via transverse ionic transport, namely by detecting the ionic current that flows in a channel while a single-stranded DNA is driven through an intersecting nanochannel. Our all-atom molecular dynamics simulations indeed show that the ionic currents of the four bases are statistically distinct, thus offering another possible approach to sequence DNA.View original: http://arxiv.org/abs/1307.0055
