Abstract
A method includes (i) providing an RNA polynucleotide; (ii) modifying the RNA polynucleotide by annealing and ligating a polynucleotide comprising a 3' terminal random multimer segment and having a stem-loop form; (iii) optionally performing a reverse transcription of the RNA polynucleotide; (iv) cleaving the stem-loop segment of the annealed polynucleotide to yield a 3′ A overhang; (v) connecting an adaptor polynucleotide complex associated with an RNA translocase enzyme and at least one cholesterol tether segment to the polynucleotide obtained in step (iv); (vi) contacting the modified RNA polynucleotide obtained in step (v) with a transmembrane pore such that the RNA translocase controls the movement of the RNA polynucleotide through the transmembrane pore and the cholesterol tether anchors the RNA polynucleotide in the vicinity of the transmembrane pore; and (vii) taking one or more measurements during the movement of the RNA polynucleotide through the transmembrane pore Other features are also disclosed.
