What Is a Nanopore?

A nanopore is a very small opening, often only a few nanometres wide. In nanopore experiments, ions or molecules pass through or near the pore, and the resulting signal can be measured. The signal can carry information about molecular size, charge, shape, sequence, binding, or chemical modification.
