Abstract

See full text

Methods are provided for sequencing of nucleic acid templates using nanopores. The rate of transport of the template nucleic acids through the nanopore is controlled using a polymerase enzyme having two slow kinetic steps. Methods are provided for sequencing hemi-natural nucleic acids such as hemi-genomic DNA, having two complementary strands, one a natural sequence and the other a synthetic sequence. The identification of modified bases can be enhanced by comparing the sequencing information from the natural sequence, which has, for example, natural base modifications, with the synthetic sequence, which typically has no base modifications. The presence and identity of a modified base can be determined by monitoring kinetics, for example the kinetics of polymer meditated nucleic acid synthesis.
