Abstract: Nucleic acid sequencing methods and systems, the systems including nanochannel chip including: a nanochannel formed in an upper surface of the nanochannel chip and; a roof covering the nanochannel and comprising nanopores and a field enhancement structure; and a barrier disposed in the nanochannel. The method including: introducing a buffer solution including long-chain nucleic acids to the nanochannel chip; applying a voltage potential across the nanochannel chip to drive the nucleic acids through the nanochannel, towards the barrier, and to translocate the nucleic acids through nanopores adjacent to the barrier, such that bases of each of the nucleic acids pass through the field enhancement structure one base at a time and emerge onto an upper surface of the roof; detecting the Raman spectra of the bases of the nucleic acids as each base passes through the electromagnetic-field enhancement structure; and sequencing the nucleic acids based on the detected Raman spectra.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for achieving an optimal function of a biochemical reaction network. The methods can be performed in silico using a reconstruction of a biochemical reaction network of a cell and iterative optimization procedures. The methods can further include laboratory culturing steps to confirm and possibly expand the determinations made using the in silico methods, and to produce a cultured cell, or population of cells, with optimal functions. The current invention includes computer systems and computer products including computer-readable program code for performing the in silico steps of the invention.
