Doctoral Dissertations
Pore forming proteins (PFPs) are membrane channels that are essential for various biological processes. For example, some PFPs act as gatekeepers of the cell, controlling the traffic of ions and macromolecules flowing into and out of cells; while others are involved in causing cell death (Reiner et al., 2012). Our fundamental understanding of PFPs determines our ability to employ these proteins for use in biomedical research and nanopore technology. Given their nanoscale dimensions, reproducibility and functionality these PFPs are widely used in the growing field of nanopore technology, particularly nanopore sensing (Reiner et al., 2012; Feng et al., 2015). These …
