The present disclosure relates to compositions, methods, and kits for generating capture probes on a substrate for identifying the location of analytes in a biological sample. In particular, disclosed is a method of generating a spatial array comprising: (a) providing a substrate comprising a plurality of acceptor oligonucleotides, wherein an acceptor oligonucleotide of the plurality of acceptor oligonucleotides comprises a spatial barcode and a first ligation handle, and wherein the 5′ end of the acceptor oligonucleotide is attached to the substrate; (b) providing a plurality of universal splint oligonucleotides, wherein a universal splint oligonucleotide of the plurality of universal splint oligonucleotides comprises a sequence complementary to the first ligation handle and a sequence complementary to a second ligation handle present in a donor oligonucleotide of a plurality of donor oligonucleotides; and (c) ligating the donor oligonucleotide comprising a capture domain to the 3′ end of the acceptor oligonucleotide to generate a capture probe, wherein the universal splint oligonucleotide is hybridized to the first ligation handle and the second ligation handle, thereby generating a spatial array.

The invention relates to methods of multiplex detection of a plurality of target nucleic acids by contacting a sample with an acid reagent to remove bound nucleic acid detection systems, thereby allowing the same detection systems to be used again to detect different target nucleic acids and to provide for higher levels of multiplexing. The invention also relates to kits containing an acid reagent and optionally probes for detection of target nucleic acids.

Disclosed are methods for determining at least one sequence of interest of a fetus of a pregnant mother. In various embodiments, the method can determine one or more sequences of interest in a test sample that comprises a mixture of fetal cellular DNA and mother-and-fetus cfDNA. In some embodiments, methods are provided for determining whether the fetus has a genetic disease. In some embodiments, methods are provided for determining whether the fetus is homozygous in a disease causing allele when the mother is heterozygous of the same allele. In some embodiments, methods are provided for determining whether the fetus has a copy number variation (CNV) or a non-CNV genetic sequence anomaly.

Provided herein is a method for mapping rolling circle amplification (RCA) products that contain unique identifier sequences. The method generally involves (a) producing a complex comprising population of grid oligonucleotide molecules and a population of RCA products that each have a unique RCA product identifier sequence, wherein the grid oligonucleotides are hybridized directly or indirectly via a splint to complementary sites in the RCA products; (b) extending the grid oligonucleotide molecules that are hybridized to two RCA products to add the complements of the unique RCA product identifier sequences from the two RCA products to the grid oligonucleotide molecules; (c) sequencing the extended grid oligonucleotides; (d) analyzing the sequences to identify which pairs of unique RCA product identifier sequence complements have been added onto the grid oligonucleotides; and (e) making one or more physical maps of the immobilized RCA products using the pairs of sequences identified in (d).
