Abstract: The present invention provides assays and assay systems for use in spatially encoded biological assays. The invention provides an assay system comprising an assay capable of high levels of multiplexing where reagents are provided to a biological sample in defined spatial patterns; instrumentation capable of controlled delivery of reagents according to the spatial patterns; and a decoding scheme providing a readout that is digital in nature.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and kits for generating single cell barcodes and imparting them to the constituent molecules within a single cell. Additionally, methods to overlay sample barcode and spatial barcode information onto the single cell barcodes are also described. Generation of single cell barcodes is achieved by labeling the genomic DNA of a cell/nucleus with a small handful, preferably just a one or two cellular barcode probes (CBP) that can be amplified and propagated to label the constituent molecules within the cell. The disclosure finds utility in applications such as characterization of cellular heterogeneity, comprehensive profiling of tissue composition, characterization of adherent cells, discovery of new cell subtypes and functions of individual cells in the context of its microenvironment, and others.

Abstract: A method for analyzing macromolecules, including peptides, polypeptides, and proteins, employing nucleic acid encoding is disclosed.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for spatial analysis of macromolecules (e.g., proteins, polypeptides, or peptides). In some embodiments, the methods are for analyzing a macromolecule or a plurality of macromolecules, (e.g., peptides, polypeptides, and proteins) including determining spatial information and sequencing the macromolecule. In some embodiments, the analysis employs barcoding and nucleic acid encoding of molecular recognition events, and/or detectable labels. Also provided are compositions, e.g., kits, containing components for performing the provided methods for analysis of the macromolecule.

Abstract: Methods and Kits for analyzing macromolecules, including peptides, polypeptides, and proteins, employing nucleic acid encoding are disclosed. The sample analysis kits employ nucleic acid encoding and/or nucleic acid recording of a molecular interaction and/or reaction, such as recognition events (e.g., between an antigen and an antibody, between a modified terminal amino acid residue, or between a small molecule or peptide therapeutic and a target, etc.). Assays that do not require the cyclic transfer of information between a coding tag and a recording tag are also disclosed, including single cycle assays.

Abstract: Kits and methods of using the kits for analyzing macromolecules, including peptides, polypeptides, and proteins, employing nucleic acid encoding are disclosed. The sample analysis kits employ nucleic acid encoding and/or nucleic acid recording of a molecular interaction and/or reaction, such as recognition events (e.g., between an antigen and an antibody, between a modified terminal amino acid residue, or between a small molecule or peptide therapeutic and a target, etc.). Additional barcoding reagents, such as those for cycle-specific barcoding (e.g., “clocking”), compartment barcoding, combinatorial barcoding, spatial barcoding, or any combination thereof, may be included in the kits. The sample may comprise macromolecules, including peptides, polypeptides, and proteins, and the recording may generate molecular interaction and/or reaction information, and/or polypeptide sequence information.
