Abstract

A conductive channel-containing membrane includes a membrane layer, and a SPPl connector polypeptide variant that is incorporated into the membrane layer to form an aperture through which conductance can occur when an electrical potential is applied across the membrane. A method of sensing a molecule, such as a polypeptide or nucleic acid molecule, makes use of the conductive channel- containing membrane. A method of DNA sequence makes use of the conductive channel-containing membrane.
