  • METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR SEQUENCING LIBRARY NORMALIZATION
    Publication number: 20260049348
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods and compositions for normalizing polynucleotide concentration. Normalizing may be accomplished using polynucleotide binding proteins (e.g., catalytically inactive CRISPR protein or catalytically inactive Argonaute proteins). The polynucleotide binding proteins may bind to the adapter sequences of a target polynucleotide. Thus, adding the same amount of a polynucleotide binding proteins to different samples and then extracting the polynucleotide protein is shown herein to extract similar amounts of target polynucleotides from the different samples.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 11, 2025
    Publication date: February 19, 2026
    Inventors: Martin Ranik, Eric van der Walt, Clara Ross, Craig Marshall, Lindsay Peterkin, Brian Kudlow, Travis J. Sanders
