Abstract: Methods and systems for detecting the presence of a target nucleic acid sequence in one or more samples of a plurality of samples are described. The methods may comprise the use of linear barcoded nucleic acid probes that, upon hybridization to a target nucleic acid sequence, may be ligated to circularize the probe molecule, amplified, and sequenced. The use of a probe-specific barcode integrated into the nucleic acid probe molecule, and sample-specific barcodes that may be incorporated into the nucleic acid probe molecule or added during the amplification step, enable large-scale multiplexed assay and sample processing.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and related methods, e.g., for preparing immobilized nucleic acid nanostructures using compaction oligonucleotides. In some embodiments, rolling circle amplification reaction can be conducted with compaction oligonucleotides on-support or in-solution to generate concatemer molecules having multiple copies of a polynucleotide unit arranged in tandem. Each polynucleotide unit comprises a sequence-of-interest and at least one universal adaptor sequence that binds one end of a compaction oligonucleotide. The 5? and 3? regions of the compaction oligonucleotide can hybridize to the concatemer to pull together distal portions of the concatemer causing compaction of the concatemer to form a nanostructure. Nanostructures having tighter size and shape compared to concatemers generated in the absence of the compaction oligonucleotides.

Abstract: Provided herein are fluorescently-labeled nucleotide conjugates for nucleic acid analysis. Also provided are reagents used for forming binding complexes between a fluorescently-labeled nucleotide conjugate and a target nucleic acid sequence in the presence of one or more reagents disclosed herein. Binding complexes can be detected in the presence of the one or more reagents. For example, the one or more reagents may contain a photobleaching reducing agent configured to reduce photobleaching resulting from use of the fluorescently-labeled nucleotide conjugate to form the binding complex in a nucleic acid analysis. Such nucleic acid analysis may be used to identify sites of nucleobase binding or incorporation between the target nucleic acid sequence and one or more nucleotide moieties of the fluorescently-labeled nucleotide conjugate in a nucleic acid sequence reaction.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods that employ the compositions for conducting pairwise sequencing and for generating concatemer template molecules for pairwise sequencing. The concatemers can be generated using a rolling circle amplification reaction which is conducted either on-support, or conducted in-solution and then distributed onto a support. The rolling circle amplification reaction generates concatemers containing tandem copies of a sequence of interest and at least one universal adaptor sequence. An increase in the number of tandem copies in a given concatemer increases the number of sites along the concatemer for hybridizing to multiple sequencing primers which serve as multiple initiation sites for polymerase-catalyzed sequencing reactions. When the sequencing reaction employs detectably labeled nucleotides and/or detectably labeled multivalent molecules (e.g.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for conducting in situ multiplex and multi-omics detection and identification using coded padlocks probes. The methods comprise simultaneous use of RNA-specific padlock probes and polypeptide-specific padlock probes to detect both RNA and polypeptides in a cellular sample. Both types of probes include a barcode that unique identifies the RNA or polypeptide that that padlock probe detects. Both types of probes also include a batch-specific sequencing primer binding site to enable sequencing a desired subset of concatemer template molecules. Use of the batch-specific sequencing primers reduces overcrowding signals and images, to produces optical images that are intense and resolvable. By conducting multiple rounds of sequencing on the same cellular sample using different batch-specific sequencing primers enables multiplex and multi-omics sequencing to reveal numerous target RNAs and their encoded polypeptides.
