Abstract excerpt
Bioinspired pore sensing for selective detection of flagellated bacteria was investigated. The Au micropore wall surface was modified with a synthetic peptide designed from toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) to mimic the pathogen-recognition capability. We found that intermolecular interactions between the TLR5-derived recognition peptides and flagella induce ligand-specific perturbations in the translocation dynamics...
