  • Publication number: 20240118274
    Abstract: Provided herein are structures and methods for detecting one or more analyte molecules present in a sample. In some embodiments, the one or more analyte molecules are detected using one or more supramolecular structures. In some embodiments, the supramolecular structures are configured to form a linkage with a particular capture barcode, which is configured to form a linkage with a particular capture molecule. In some embodiments the capture molecule is configured to interact with a particular analyte molecule. In some embodiments, the locations of supramolecular structures are mapped on a substrate having a plurality of binding locations, according to the capture barcode and/or another barcode linked with the supramolecular structures. In some embodiments, the linkage between the analyte molecules and supramolecular structures enable a signal to be generated.

  • Publication number: 20240027433
    Abstract: Provided herein are structures and methods for detecting one or more analyte molecules present in a sample. In some embodiments, the one or more analyte molecules are detected using one or more supramolecular structures. In some embodiments, the one or more supramolecular structures are specifically designed to minimize cross-reactivity with each other. In some embodiments, the supramolecular structures are bi-stable, wherein the supramolecular structures shift from an unstable state to a stable state through interaction with one or more analyte molecules from the sample. In some embodiments, the stable state supramolecular structures are configured to provide a signal for analyte molecule detection and quantification. In some embodiments, the signal correlates to a DNA signal, such that detection and quantification of an analyte molecule comprises converting the presence of the analyte molecule into a DNA signal.

  • Publication number: 20220381777
    Abstract: Provided herein are structures and methods for detecting one or more analyte molecules present in a sample. In some embodiments, the one or more analyte molecules form a complex in solution with a supramolecular structure. The supramolecular structures of the complex may be detectable such that binding of the analyte molecule to a binding site of an array is detectable via one or more features of the supramolecular structure. A binding site of an array includes capture molecules to capture bound complexes to facilitate detection.

  • Publication number: 20220268768
    Abstract: Provided herein are structures and methods for detecting one or more analyte molecules present in a sample. In some embodiments, the one or more analyte molecules are detected using one or more supramolecular structures. In some embodiments, the supramolecular structures facilitate binding of a single detector molecule. In some embodiments, the stable state supramolecular structures are configured to provide a signal for analyte molecule detection and quantification. In some embodiments, the signal correlates to a DNA signal, such that detection and quantification of an analyte molecule comprises converting the presence of the analyte molecule into a DNA signal.

  • Publication number: 20220170918
    Abstract: Provided herein are structures and methods for detecting one or more analyte molecules present in a sample. In some embodiments, the one or more analyte molecules are detected using one or more supramolecular structures that are coupled to a substrate, e.g., a solid support. In some embodiments, the supramolecular structures are bi-stable, wherein the supramolecular structures transition from an unstable state to a stable state through interaction with one or more analyte molecules from the sample. In some embodiments, the stable state supramolecular structures are configured to provide a signal for analyte molecule detection and quantification.

  • Publication number: 20050112614
    Abstract: A self-assembly method for circuit patterns includes generating a set of tiles, each of the tiles corresponding to a segment of molecules, the set of tiles comprising a set of rule tiles and a set of boundary tiles, each tile having one or more binding regions; assigning a label from a set of labels to each binding region; self interacting, with attractive forces, one or more of the tiles with one or more other tiles among the set of tiles; associating using selective interaction of at least one boundary tile from the set of boundary tiles with at least one rules tile from the set of rules tiles based upon at least a label from the one boundary tile and at label from the one rules tiles; and bonding at least one binding region of the one boundary tile with at least one binding region of the one rules tile.
