Publication number: 20260317755Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for co-amplifying RNA and DNA from a biological sample in a single reaction compartment. In some aspects, allowing for simultaneously generating RNA and DNA sequencing libraries. In particular, the disclosed methods allow high-throughput amplification and sequencing of both RNA and DNA from a single sample source without the need to divide the sample to separate nucleic acids from each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: October 15, 2026Inventors: Nicholas NAVIN, Kaile WANG, Rui YE

Patent number: 12753435Abstract: A method for obtaining from genomic material genomic copy number information unaffected by amplification distortion, comprising obtaining segments of the genomic material, tagging the segments with substantially unique tags to generate tagged nucleic acid molecules, such that each tagged nucleic acid molecule comprises one segment of the genomic material and a tag, subjecting the tagged nucleic acid molecules to amplification by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), generating tag associated sequence reads by sequencing the product of the PCR reaction, assigning each tagged nucleic acid molecule to a location on a genome associated with the genomic material by mapping the subsequence of each tag associated sequence read corresponding to a segment of the genomic material to a location on the genome, and counting the number of tagged nucleic acid molecules having a different tag that have been assigned to the same location on the genome, thereby obtaining genomic copy number information unaffected by amplification dType: GrantFiled: January 31, 2025Date of Patent: October 6, 2026Assignee: COLD SPRING HARBOR LABORATORYInventors: James Hicks, Nicholas Navin, Jennifer Troge, Zihua Wang, Michael Wigler

Publication number: 20260275408Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and compositions for the approximately simultaneous amplification of closed chromatin region DNA and open chromatin region DNA. The present disclosure further provides methods of producing a DNA library for analysis of open chromatin region DNA and closed chromatin region DNA approximately simultaneously and methods of identifying a DNA sequence variation or an epigenetic modification in a sample. Aspects of the present disclosure further relate to a DNA library produced by the methods of the present disclosure.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2024Publication date: September 17, 2026Applicant: Board of Regents, The University of Texas SystemInventors: Kaile Wang, Nicholas Navin, Yun Yan, Heba Elgamal, Yiyun Lin, Junke Wang
