Patent number: 12168801Abstract: Systems and methods for identifying and using hybrid/capture probes are provided. cDNA sequences from poly-adenylated mRNA are obtained. Each cDNA sequence in a first subset maps to a gene in a plurality of genes. Each cDNA sequence in a second subset maps to a reference genome portion not represented by the plurality of genes. Each gene has a corresponding plurality of transcripts. The cDNA sequences are exposed to at least 2×103 nucleic acid baits between K1 and K2 residues long, forming nucleic acid bait—sequence read complexes. Each nucleic acid bait that hybridizes to a cDNA sequence mapping to a gene selectively hybridizes to a first subset or another subset of transcripts corresponding to the gene. Each transcript of each gene is hybridizable to a nucleic acid bait in the at least 2×103 nucleic acid baits. The nucleic acid bait—sequence read complexes are captured and analyzed.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2021Date of Patent: December 17, 2024Assignee: 10X Genomics, Inc.Inventors: Andrew John Hill, Katherine Pfeiffer, Andrew Scott Kohlway

Patent number: 12110549Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions, methods, systems, and devices for polynucleotide processing and analyte characterization. Such polynucleotide processing may be useful for a variety of applications, including analyte characterization by polynucleotide sequencing. The compositions, methods, systems, and devices disclosed herein generally describe barcoded oligonucleotides, which can be bound to a bead, such as a gel bead, useful for characterizing one or more analytes including, for example, protein (e.g., cell surface or intracellular proteins), genomic DNA, and RNA (e.g., mRNA or CRISPR guide RNAs). Also described herein, are barcoded labelling agents and oligonucleotide molecules useful for “tagging” analytes for characterization.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2022Date of Patent: October 8, 2024Assignee: 10X GENOMICS, INC.Inventors: Phillip Belgrader, Zachary Bent, Rajiv Bharadwaj, Vijay Kumar Sreenivasa Gopalan, Josephine Harada, Christopher Hindson, Mohammad Rahimi Lenji, Michael Ybarra Lucero, Geoffrey McDermott, Elliott Meer, Tarjei Sigurd Mikkelsen, Christopher Joachim O'Keeffe, Katherine Pfeiffer, Andrew D.

Publication number: 20240309448Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for processing biomolecules (e.g., nucleic acid molecules, proteins) from a sample. A method for processing biomolecules may comprise hybridizing a probe molecule to a target region of a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule) and barcoding the probe-nucleic acid molecule complex or derivatives thereof. Such a method can comprise performing a nucleic acid reaction, e.g., extension, denaturation, and amplification. A method for processing a sample may comprise hybridizing probes to (i) target regions of a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., RNA molecule) and (ii) a reporter oligonucleotide of a feature binding group, and barcoding the probe-associated molecules. One or more processes of the methods described herein may be performed within a partition, such as a droplet or well.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2024Publication date: September 19, 2024Inventors: Katherine PFEIFFER, Andrew Scott KOHLWAY, Andrew John HILL, Paul Eugene LUND
