  • Patent number: 11591650
    Abstract: The disclosed invention is related to a universal strand-specific protocol for the sequencing preparation of all classes of RNA. The protocol allows for sequencing for dozens to more than thousands of samples simultaneously. Specifically, the disclosed invention is a method for parallel sequencing target RNA from samples from multiple sources while maintaining source identification.

  • Patent number: 10612088
    Abstract: A method for parallel sequencing target RNA from samples from multiple sources while maintaining source identification is provided. The method includes providing samples of RNA comprising target RNA from two or more sources; labeling, at the 3? end, the RNA from the two or more sources with a first nucleic acid adaptor that comprises a nucleic acid sequence that differentiates between the RNA from the two or more sources; reverse transcribing the two or more sources to create a single stranded DNA comprising the nucleic acid sequence that differentiates between the RNA from the two or more sources; amplifying the single stranded DNA to create DNA amplification products that comprise the nucleic acid sequence that differentiates between the RNA from the two or more sources; sequencing the DNA amplification products thereby parallel sequencing target RNA from samples from multiple sources while maintaining source identification.
