The basic principle of the Oxford Nanopore Technology (ONT) is straightforward. Molecules are driven through a pore in a membrane. As a molecule moves through membrane it blocks current. In fact the extent of "blockage" is sequence specific generating using current change profiles that can be "translated" into sequence.
