Engineered voltage-responsive nanopores
Abstract
The creation of synthetic devices that mimic functionality of biological systems is a task of fundamental importance for the future development of bio- and nanotechnology and also an ultimate test of our understanding of the biological systems. Among a plethora of bio-inspired devices, designed nanopores and nanochannels with an embedded functionality are of particular interest because of their potential applications in nanofluidic electronics, biosensing, separation, synthetic biology, and single-molecule manipulation. In this respect, nanopores with built-in stimulus-responsive properties are of special benefit. A transmembrane potential is a particularly useful stimulus as it is non-invasive, tunable, and can act over a short time scale. This critical review considers engineered solid-state and protein nanopores with voltage-responsive properties. The engineered systems show nonlinear current-voltage curves, and/or voltage-dependent switching between discrete conductance states (141 references).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
