Abstract

The invention relates to devices and methods for nanopore sequencing. The invention provides for using the signals from N monomeric units (n-mers) within the nanopore to provide sequence information. The invention includes substrates having arrays of nanopores with incorporated electronic circuits, for example, in semiconductor substrates. In some cases, the arrays of nanopores reside in discrete reservoirs.
