  • Patent number: 11802878
    Abstract: The invention describes methods and reagents useful for sequencing polypeptide molecules. The method comprises affixing a polypeptide to a substrate and contacting the polypeptide with a plurality of probes. Each probe selectively binds to an N-terminal amino acid or an N-terminal amino acid derivative. Probes bound to the polypeptide molecule are then identified before cleaving the N-terminal amino acid or N-terminal amino acid derivative of the polypeptide. Also provided are methods for the sequencing a plurality of polypeptide molecules in a sample and probes specific for N-terminal amino acids or N-terminal amino acid derivatives.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 18, 2019
    Date of Patent: October 31, 2023
    Assignee: The Governing Council of the University of Toronto
    Inventors: Andrew Emili, Megan McLaughlin, Kyrylo Zagorovsky, Jonathan Buchanan Olsen, Warren C. W. Chan, Sachdev S. Sidhu
