  • Patent number: 11931400
    Abstract: Therapeutic compositions and an associated method for improving a Toll-like receptor (TLR)-related condition, including determining a set of peptide sequences associated with a microorganism-related modulator of a TLR, determining a first set of binding parameters for the set of peptide sequences in relation to the TLR, selecting a target subset of peptide sequences from the set of peptide sequences based on the first set of binding parameters, reengineering the target subset of peptide sequences based on mutating amino acid residues of the target subset of peptide sequences, determining a second set of binding parameters for the reengineered target subset of peptide sequences in relation to the TLR, and identifying a first peptide for use in a therapeutic composition for improving the TLR-related condition, based on the second set of binding parameters for the reengineered target subset of peptide sequences.

  • Patent number: 11001900
    Abstract: Embodiments of a method and/or system for characterizing one or more female reproductive system-related conditions can include determining a microorganism dataset associated with a set of subjects; and/or performing a characterization process associated with the one or more female reproductive system-related conditions, based on the microorganism dataset, where performing the characterization process can additionally or alternatively include performing a female reproductive system-related characterization process for the one or more female reproductive system-related conditions, and/or determining one or more therapies.

  • Publication number: 20200263171
    Abstract: Embodiments of a method and/or system, such as for preparation of a normalized library for sequencing such as next-generation sequencing, can include one or more of: generating one or more normalized amplicon libraries; generating one or more normalized microbial community-associated libraries; and/or generating one or more normalized combined sequence libraries associated with amplicon-associated sequencing and microbial community-associated sequencing.

  • Publication number: 20200123539
    Abstract: Embodiments of a method 100 and/or system 200 or library preparation for sequencing associated with microorganisms can include: preparing a set of unique molecular identifier (UMI)-based molecules associated with one or more targets; preparing a set of sequencing-based primers; generating a set of tagged target molecules based on the set of UMI-based molecules and one or more samples associated with the one or more targets; and/or generating a set of sequencing-ready tagged target molecules based on the tagged target molecules and the set of sequencing-based primers.
