Modulation of the current signatures of DNA abasic site adducts in the α-hemolysin ion channel

Abstract

Electrical current signatures of DNA adducts were investigated during immobilization of strands inside the membrane-bound α-hemolysin ion channel. The current blockages produced by these adducts were found to depend on both size and shape, providing insights into the DNA–protein interactions and the size limitation of bulky adducts to be translocated.
