Patent number: 11920193Abstract: Methods of characterizing an analyte using a detector such as a nanopore and an enzyme are provided. One aspect features methods for characterizing a double-stranded polynucleotide using a detector, e.g., without using a hairpin connecting a template and a complement of the double-stranded polynucleotide. Another aspect features methods for characterizing an analyte using a tag-modified nanopore with increased sensitivity and/or higher throughput. Compositions and systems including, e.g., adaptors for attachment to double-stranded polynucleotides and tag-modified nanopores, which can be used in the methods are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2019Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Oxford Nanopore Technologies PLCInventors: James Anthony Clarke, James White, Richard Muscat, Jessica Mary May Johnson, Ramiz Iqbal Nathani, Andrew John Heron, Mark John Bruce, Lakmal Nishantha Jayasinghe, Domenico Caprotti, David Jackson Stoddart, Rebecca Victoria Bowen, Christopher James Wright, Paul Richard Moody
