  • Publication number: 20240117428
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides nucleotide conjugates each configured to include a core attached to multiple nucleotide-arms, where the nucleotide-arms are modular and comprise (i) a core attachment moiety, (ii) a spacer, (iii) a linker, and (iv) a nucleotide unit. The nucleotide unit of each nucleotide-arm can bind a polymerase which is complexed with a nucleic acid template and nucleic acid primer. The nucleotide unit can bind the 3? end of the primer at a position that is opposite a complementary nucleotide in the template strand. Under suitable conditions, the nucleotide unit of the nucleotide conjugates binds the primer strand but does not undergo polymerase-catalyzed incorporation. The binding event can be detected, and the specific base of the nucleotide unit can be identified. The nucleotide conjugates described herein are useful for nucleic acid sequencing methods, particularly for massively parallel sequencing methods employed for next gen sequencing platforms.

  • Patent number: 11949198
    Abstract: A molding assembly for establishing an electrical connection between an electrified planar element, which is formed with a peripheral electrical contact, and an electrical device includes a plastic frame element having an electrical conductor. The plastic frame element is adapted to be disposed along a peripheral portion of the electrified planar element that includes the peripheral contact. The plastic frame element extends between two ends. The electrical conductor extends between the two ends of the plastic frame element on a side facing the electrified planar element so that, during attachment of the plastic frame element to the peripheral portion, an electrical connection is automatically establishable between the electrical conductor and the peripheral contact.

    Abstract: Examples of augmented reality (AR) environment control advantageously employ multi-factor intention determination and include: performing a multi-factor intention determination for summoning a control object (e.g., a menu, a keyboard, or an input panel) using a set of indications in an AR environment, the set of indications comprising a plurality of indications (e.g., two or more of a palm-facing gesture, an eye gaze, a head gaze, and a finger position simultaneously); and based on at least the set of indications indicating a summoning request by a user, displaying the control object in a position proximate to the user in the AR environment (e.g., docked to a hand of the user). Some examples continue displaying the control object while at least one indication remains, and continue displaying the control object during a timer period if one of the indications is lost.

  • Patent number: 11859241
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods that employ the compositions for conducting pairwise sequencing and for generating concatemer template molecules for pairwise sequencing. The concatemers can be generated using a rolling circle amplification reaction which is conducted either on-support, or conducted in-solution and then distributed onto a support. The rolling circle amplification reaction generates concatemers containing tandem copies of a sequence of interest and at least one universal adaptor sequence. An increase in the number of tandem copies in a given concatemer increases the number of sites along the concatemer for hybridizing to multiple sequencing primers which serve as multiple initiation sites for polymerase-catalyzed sequencing reactions. When the sequencing reaction employs detectably labeled nucleotides and/or detectably labeled multivalent molecules (e.g.
