The present disclosure relates to a method of sequencing nascent RNA in a cell. In some embodiments, the nascent RNA is conjugated to DNA using copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). Methods of the present disclosure can be used to generate genomic libraries of a cell and measure gene expression and enhancer and/or super-enhancer activity.

Methods for controlled segregation of blocks of information encoded in the sequence of a biopolymer, such as nucleic acids and polypeptides, with rapid retrieval based on multiply addressing nanostructured data have been developed. In some embodiments, sequence controlled polymer memory objects include data-encoded biopolymers of any length or form encapsulated by natural or synthetic polymers and including one or more address tags. The sequence address labels are used to associate or select memory objects for sequencing read-out, enabling organization and access of distinct memory objects or subsets of memory objects using Boolean logic. In some embodiments, a memory object is a single-stranded nucleic acid scaffold strand encoding bit stream information that is folded into a nucleic acid nanostructure of arbitrary geometry, including one or more sequence address labels. Methods for controlled degradation of biopolymer-encoded blocks of information in the memory objects are also developed.

Kits and methods of using the kits for analyzing macromolecules, including peptides, polypeptides, and proteins, employing nucleic acid encoding are disclosed. The sample analysis kits employ nucleic acid encoding and/or nucleic acid recording of a molecular interaction and/or reaction, such as recognition events (e.g., between an antigen and an antibody, between a modified terminal amino acid residue, or between a small molecule or peptide therapeutic and a target, etc.). Additional barcoding reagents, such as those for cycle-specific barcoding (e.g., “clocking”), compartment barcoding, combinatorial barcoding, spatial barcoding, or any combination thereof, may be included in the kits. The sample may comprise macromolecules, including peptides, polypeptides, and proteins, and the recording may generate molecular interaction and/or reaction information, and/or polypeptide sequence information. The kits may be used in high-throughput, multiplexed, and/or automated analysis, and are suitable for analysis of a proteome or subset thereof.
