A system for producing a therapeutic oligomer includes a computing device configured to design a proposed therapeutic oligomer sequence, wherein designing further comprises generating a genomic library for an organism from a gene target, initiating a sequence identification function, identifying a genomic locus that the proposed therapeutic oligomer sequence is predicted to bond to as a function of an off-target sequence function, selecting the proposed therapeutic oligomer sequence as a function of the sequence identification function, the genomic locus, and a criterion element, and synthesize a therapeutic oligomer as a function of the proposed therapeutic oligomer sequence.

Systems and methods of polynucleotide sequencing are provided. Systems and methods optimize control, speed, movement, and/or translocation of a sample (e.g., a polynucleotide) within, through, or at least partially through a nanopore or a type of protein or mutant protein in order to accumulate sufficient time and current blocking information to identify contiguous nucleotides or plurality of nucleotides in a single-stranded area of a polynucleotide.
