A method is provided for preparing nanopore sequencing complexes in membranes for sequencing of polymers, e.g., polynucleotides and polypeptides. The nanopore sequencing complex is formed by the sequential linking of an enzyme to a nanopore that is inserted in a membrane, and of a polymer to the enzyme. Alternatively, the nanopore sequencing complex is formed by linking a preformed enzyme-polymer complex to a nanopore that is inserted in a membrane. The enzyme polymer complex is interchangeable. |
