Provided herein, in some embodiments, are compositions and methods for producing a molecular expression map of a biological sample using Deterministic Barcoding in Tissue for spatial omics sequencing (DBiT-seq).

There are provided methods and systems for detecting and/or quantifying an analyte. In particular, there are provided methods and systems for simultaneous detection and/or quantitation of two or more analytes in a sample. Colocalization-by-linkage assays on microparticles (CLAMP) can be engineered and used to effectively multiplex the detection of analytes within a sample. Features and methods of CLAMP systems can provide robust and scalable analysis of analytes in a sample.

The disclosure provides compositions and methods for identifying and/or quantifying a binding member in a sample.

The present disclosure is directed to conjugates of a specific binding entity and an oligomer, i.e. [Specific Binding Entity]-[Oligomer].sub.n, wherein n is an integer ranging from 1 to 12, and where the Oligomer includes, in some embodiments, a PNA sequence having at least one substituent at a gamma carbon position. In some embodiments, the substituent at the gamma carbon position, e.g. an amino acid, a peptide, a miniPEG, or a polymer, includes at least one reporter moiety.

The present disclosure relates to materials and methods for spatially analyzing nucleic acids that have been fragmented with a transposase enzyme, alone or in combination with other types of analytes.

A method for characterizing proteins, including steps of (a) detecting a plurality of proteins, wherein individual proteins of the plurality are associated with unique identifiers, wherein the detecting distinguishes the identities of the individual proteins and the unique identifiers associated with the individual proteins; (b) digesting the proteins to form peptides, wherein the peptides from each protein are associated with the unique identifiers for the respective individual protein; (c) detecting the peptides and associated unique identifiers, wherein the detecting distinguishes characteristics of individual peptides, and wherein the detecting distinguishes unique identifiers associated with the individual peptides; and (d) correlating characteristics detected in step (c) with individual proteins detected in step (a) based on the unique identifiers associated with the individual proteins and the peptides.

Provided herein are compositions and methods for sorting and/or identifying live cells. The compositions and methods provide for staining of live cells with aptamer so particular cells can be identified within or sorted from a heterogeneous population of live cells and subsequent reversal of the staining to prepare sorted and/or identified cells in their native state.

Single-cell analysis of a population of cells reveals cellular genotypes (e.g., single nucleotide variants and copy number variations) and phenotypes (e.g., protein expression) of individual cells. In one scenario, individual cells can be classified according to their respective genotypes and phenotypes. In one scenario, genotypes and phenotypes of all cells in the population are informative for identifying subpopulations of cells, thereby revealing intra-population heterogeneity. The identification of subpopulations of cells is informative for improving the understanding of cellular biology, especially in the context of diseases such as cancer, and is further informative for the better design of diagnostics and therapies.

Described herein are methods, uses, and kits for droplet-based single cell sequencing of nucleic acids from extracellular vesicles. Specifically, the disclosure provides methods of analyzing protein compositions from individual extracellular vesicles (EVs) from biological samples including pluralities of EVs, the methods comprising labeling the EVs with antibody-DNA conjugates; encapsulating the labeled EVs, barcoded beads, and an extension reagent mix into droplets; within one or more of the droplets, hybridizing the antibody-DNA conjugates with a hybridization region in the barcoded beads; generating RNA from the DNA; synthesizing cDNA from the RNA; amplifying and sequencing the cDNA from one or more individual EVs from the biological sample; and analyzing the sequence of the cDNA from individual EVs to define their protein composition.

There are provided methods and systems for detecting and/or quantifying an analyte. In particular, there are provided methods and systems for simultaneous detection and/or quantitation of two or more analytes in a sample. In some embodiments, there are provided colocalization-by-linkage assays on microparticles (CLAMP) comprising two sets of binders pre-assembled on a support, such that the two sets of binders are colocalized before contacting the sample.
