Patents by Inventor Xinying Zheng

Xinying Zheng has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20240084292
    Abstract: Methods and systems for sample preparation techniques that allow amplification (e.g., whole genome amplification) and sequencing of chromatin accessible regions of single cells are provided. The methods and systems generally operate by forming or providing partitions (e.g., droplets) including a single biological particle and a single bead comprising a barcoded oligonucleotide. The preparation of barcoded next-generation sequencing libraries prepared from a single cell is facilitated by the transposon-mediated transposition and fragmentation of a target nucleic acid sequence. The methods and systems may be configured to allow the implementation of single-operation or multi-operation chemical and/or biochemical processing within the partitions.

  • Publication number: 20240067953
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods, compositions and systems for analyzing individual cells or cell populations through a partitioned analysis of contents of individual cells or cell populations, such as cancer cells and cells of the immune system. Individual cells or cell populations may be co-partitioned with processing reagents for accessing cellular contents, and for uniquely identifying the content of a given cell or cell population, and subsequently analyzing the content of the cell and characterizing it as having derived from an individual cell or cell population, including analysis and characterization of nucleic acid(s) from the cell through sequencing.

  • Publication number: 20240035066
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods, compositions and systems for capturing and analyzing sequence information contained in targeted regions of a genome. Such targeted regions may include exomes, partial exomes, introns, combinations of exonic and intronic regions, genes, panels of genes, and any other subsets of a whole genome that may be of interest.

  • Publication number: 20230416747
    Abstract: Provided herein are safe harbor loci and methods for identifying and using safe harbor loci to engineer cells to express transgenes. The safe harbor loci exhibit increased transgene knock-in efficiency and allow for increased, stable expression of transgenes in engineered cells. Guide ribonucleic acids (gRNAs) may be used for insertion of transgenes in the safe harbor loci.
