High-Throughput Single-Molecule Analysis via Divisive Segmentation and Clustering
Single-molecule approaches provide insight into the dynamics of biomolecules, yet analysis methods have not scaled with the growing size of data sets acquired in high-throughput experiments. We present a new analysis platform (DISC) that uses divisive clustering to accelerate unsupervised analysis of single-molecule trajectories by up to three orders of magnitude with improved accuracy. Using DISC, we reveal an inherent lack of cooperativity between cyclic nucleotide binding domains from HCN pacemaker ion channels embedded in nanophotonic zero-mode waveguides.
