[0296] Example 1: For expression and purification of modified secretin nanopore subunit polypeptides such as modified InvG nano Exemplary Methods of Pore Subunit Polypeptides

[0297] A secretin nanopore subunit polypeptide (for example, amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2 containing coding modification, which has one or more (for example, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 , 8, 9, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 or more and up to 50 of the amino acid modifications described herein)) of the ampicillin-resistant pT7 vector with a C-terminal hexahistidine (His) tag C43DE3pLysS cells were cotransformed with a kanamycin-resistant pRham vector containing a gene encoding InvH protein (a 20Kd protein that will enhance InvG expression), and in the presence of ampicillin (100 μg / ml) and kanamycin (30 μg / ml ml) agar plates and grown overnight at 37°C. A single colony was used to inoculate a 100 ml starter culture of TB medium containing ampicillin (100 μg / ml) and kanamycin (30 μg / ml). The cultu...

Abstract

Provided herein relate to modified or mutant forms of secretin and compositions comprising the same. In particular, the modified or mutant forms of secretin permits efficient capture and / or translocation of an analyte through the modified or mutant secretin nanopores. Methods for using unmodified secretin or the modified or mutant forms of secretin and compositions, for example, for characterizing an analyte, e.g., a target polynucleotide, are also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] Provided herein are modified or mutated forms of secretin and compositions comprising the same. Also provided are methods of using modified or mutated forms of secretin and compositions, eg, for characterizing a target analyte, eg, a target polynucleotide. Also provided herein are compositions comprising secretin and an enzyme provided in the lumen of secretin. Background technique [0002] Transmembrane pores such as nanopores have been used to identify small molecules or folded proteins and to monitor chemical or enzymatic reactions at the single-molecule level. Electrophoretic translocation of DNA across nanopores reconstituted into artificial membranes holds great promise for practical applications such as DNA sequencing and biomarker identification. However, translocation of double-stranded or single-stranded DNA through nanopores with inner surfaces facing negatively charged amino acids was ineffective. Contents of the invention [0003] The...
