This disclosure provides systems and methods for attaching nano pore-detectable tags to nucleotides. The disclosure also provides methods for sequencing nucleic acids using the disdosed tagged nudeotides. Provided herein are nudeotides with attached tags and methods for attaching tags to nudeotides. The tags can be attached by chemical reactions, such as "dick chemistry". In an aspect, the present disdosure provides a tagged nudeotide, comprising: (a) a poly-phosphate moiety having a terminal phosphate; and (b) a tag covalently coupled to the terminal phosphate of the nudeotide by a triazole, a 1,2-diazine, a disulfide, a secondary amine, a hydrazone, a thio-acetamide, or a maleimide-thioadduct. |
