DESIGN AND SELECTION OF AFFINITY AGENTS

Methods and systems are provided herein for selecting an affinity reagent which binds a desired peptide epitope in a plurality of sequence contexts. The method relies on obtaining a peptide library, each peptide having the sequence αXβ, wherein X is the desired peptide epitope, wherein each of α and β comprise an amino acid, using the peptide library to select an affinity reagent.

HLA-based methods and compositions and uses thereof

Compositions and methods for isolating HLA-peptides from cells. A universal platform and methods for profiling the HLA-peptidome, enabling identification of endogenously presented HLA-peptides from cell lines expressing any possible class I or II construct.

A system, device, and method for predicting a docked position of a target ligand in a binding site of a biomolecule is disclosed. The prediction makes use of a template ligand-biomolecule complex structure in order to predict a target ligand-biomolecule complex structure. The system and device contain modules allowing for the prediction of a target-ligand biomolecule complex structure. A preparation module can receive information identifying a target ligand and a template ligand-biomolecule structure. A pharmacophore matcher module can identify common pharmacophores between the template ligand and the target ligand. A docking module can predict a docked ligand position of the target ligand by overlapping the pharmacophore models of the target ligand and template ligand while the template ligand is in the binding site of the biomolecule. A biomolecule modification module can modify the biomolecule to reduce clashes between the docked target ligand and the biomolecule.

Cellular phenotype screening method

Methods and systems for characterizing analytes from individual cells or cell populations

The present disclosure provides methods of processing or analyzing a sample. A method for processing a sample may comprise hybridizing a probe molecule to a target region of a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., a ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule), barcoding the probe-nucleic acid molecule complex, and performing extension, denaturation, and amplification processes. A method for processing a sample may comprise hybridizing first and second probes to adjacent or non-adjacent target regions of a nucleic acid molecule (e.g., an RNA molecule), linking the first and second probes to provide a probe-linked nucleic acid molecule, and barcoding the probe-linked nucleic acid molecule. One or more processes of the methods described herein may be performed within a partition, such as a droplet or well. One or more processes of the methods described herein may be performed on a cell, such as a permeabilized cell.
