Однажды в середине 1980-х Фрэнсис Коллинз позировал фотокорреспонденту в лабораторном халате с иголкой в руках перед огромным снопом сена – точная метафора о ДНК-детективах, выискивающих в геноме единственную орфографическую ошибку среди трех миллиардов букв. – Здесь и далее примечания автора, если не указано иное.

При нанопоровом секвенировании двойная спираль ДНК «расстегивается», что позволяет пропустить одну из ее цепей через нанопору – бактериальный белок в форме пончика. Измеряя электрический ток при прохождении ДНК через пору подобно поезду метро, устройство Oxford Nanopore может преобразовывать эту электрическую кривую в соответствующую последовательность ДНК.
