Detecting protein analytes that modulate transmembrane movement of a polymer chain within a single protein pore.

Here we describe a new type of biosensor element for detecting proteins in solution at nanomolar concentrations. We tethered a 3.4 kDa polyethylene glycol chain at a defined site within the lumen of the transmembrane protein pore formed by staphylococcal alpha-hemolysin. The free end of the polymer...
