title: Biomimetic glass nanopores employing aptamer gates responsive to a small molecule.
abstract: We report the preparation of 20 and 65 nm radii glass nanopores whose surface is modified with DNA aptamers controlling the molecular transport through the nanopores in response to small molecule binding.
