Genome Projects and Sequencing Technologies · Zoology

Nanopore sequencing identifies nucleotides based on changes in:

  1. Light emission from incorporation
  2. Electrical current
  3. Radioactivity of labeled bases
  4. pH levels in the reaction
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Electrical current

Nanopore sequencing measures changes in electrical current as DNA passes through a nanopore. Different bases produce distinct signals.
