WSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MULTI-OMIC ANALYSISCROSS-REFEREN CE

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 754,894, filed February76, 2025, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety7.BACKGROUND

[0002] Biological samples such as bodily fluids or tissue samples may be used to diagnose a disease. Biological samples are collected from a subject for diagnostic testing. Biological samples can include whole blood samples or blood derivatives such as plasma used for detection of one or more diseases, for example cancer. Generally, cancers are detected using diagnostics configured to detect at least one biomarker. Biomarker detection and quantification may be used to identify certain information about the disease such as type or subty pe of disease, disease progression, disease risk, and other disease information relating to the subject from whom a biological sample is taken. Biomarker detection can include detecting information about DNA, RNA, proteins, or other biological materials. This information is stored in one or more libraries.SUMMARY

[0003] The present disclosure recognizes that testing and treatment analysis procedures often require a painful and difficult tissue biopsy, which may not be feasible for patients of advanced age or other impairments that render a tissue biopsy risky or not feasible. The present disclosure recognizes that whole blood or blood derivative biological materials from a subject, such as serum, is used to gather information about diseases such as cancer.

[0004] Tools used in whole blood or blood derivative sampling, screening, and diagnostic testing, as well as treatment prediction, may face challenges, for example limitations involving the accuracy and cohesiveness of information gathered from various different sets of biomarkers in these samples and the ease of identifying a subset of biomarkers, such as a small subset of biomarkers, in samples which naturally contain a large amount of various biomarker types and subtypes.

[0005] Further, the generation of libraries for diagnostic sequencing may face challenges, for example the inaccuracies, inefficiencies, and lack of cohesion resulting from the tagging and expansion methods of individually modeled various biomolecule types. Further, multianalyte models, multimodal models, and multi-omic models may be used to increase cohesion, accuracy, and efficiency of library generation. Further, the methods of tagging described hereinWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601may increase the accuracy, efficiency, and cohesion of libraries, including for difficult-to-detect biomarkers.

[0006] Further, detecting and identifying small amounts of disease such as cancer in a subject for measurable residual disease (MRD) monitoring may face challenges. The present disclosure provides multianalyte models, multimodal models, and multi-omic models, as well as alternative methods and systems for tagging and library generation, that improve the accuracy and efficiency of MRD monitoring and associated library generation for various diseases.

As illustrated in FIG. 5, the grouped feature data is further parsed or separated into feature subgroups 506 based on one or more additional features. AI / ML architecture such as neural networks, for example multilayer perception (MLP) 509 is applied to the feature subgroups 506 to predict a synthetic tissue fraction. As shown in, for example FIG. 5, the synthetic tissue fraction prediction is output as a matrix or data list.

[0172] As illustrated in FIG. 6, for example, models are used for each type of extraction data. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, a cell type deconvolution model is used to analyze methylation data, as a methylation model 600. Data associated with a biological sample 601 is input into the methylation model 600. A subset of data of the biological sample 600 is selected, for example methylation data to produce methylation feature data 602. AI / ML architecture, for example transformer architecture 604 or convolutional neural networks 605 is applied to a plurality of methylation feature data 602 groups to predict synthetic fraction of the biological sample 601 based on methylation data, for example methylation data alone. As shown in FIG. 6, for example, methylation feature data 602 is further divided into feature subgroups 603, and multilayer perception (MLP) 606 is applied to predict synthetic fraction from subgroups 603 of methylation data. The AI / ML architecture, for example the transformer architecture 604, the convolutional neural network 605, or the MLP 606 is used to analyze and determine a predictive relationship between the methylation data features 602 and the synthetic fraction, for example in a subset of genomic regions that is preselected or dynamic.

[0173] As illustrated in FIG. 7, AI / ML models are trained on multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal information 700 found at the site of a genomic variant. A reference genome 701 is used to compare captured variant information with reference information. As illustrated in FIG.7, one or more variants captured by DNA sequencing 702 is compared to multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal information at a reference site or reference area of a reference genome 701. As illustrated in FIG. 7, one or more variants captured by RNA sequencing 703 is compared to multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal information at a reference site or reference area of a reference genome 701. As illustrated in FIG. 7, one or more variants captured by methylation mapping 704 is compared to multi-omic. multianalyte, or multimodal information at a mapped reference site or mapped reference area of a reference genome 701.WSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601

[0174] Analysis of the multi-omic assay may comprise identifying sequence variations using a genome sequencing assay portion of the multi-omic assay. The sequence variations may comprise single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNVs), copy number variations (CNVs), and other genomic features. As illustrated in FIGs. 9A-C, variant allele frequencies (VAF) may be more consistent in multi-omic assay analysis than using WGS alone. FIG. 9A shows concordance between VAF of mutations in WGS of DNA alone compared to multi-omic sequencing. FIG.9B shows concordance between CNVs of WGS of DNA alone compared to multi-omic sequencing. FIG. 9C shows CNV profdes across multiple cell lines for lung cancer, liver cancer, melanoma, and normal cells.

[0175] The methods may further comprise performing quantification of gene expression counts and cell type interpretation based on expression profiles of the multi-omic data. As illustrated in FIGs. 10A-D, RNA gene expression may be more consistent in multi-omic assay analysis than using RNA sequencing alone.

FIG. 10D shows genomic distribution of transcripts for RNA sequencing alone compared to multi-omic sequencing.

[0176] The multi-omic assay may comprise performing whole genome bisulfite sequencing. Analysis of assay results of the bisulfite sequencing assay component of the multi-omic assay may comprise identifying differential promoter methylation, genome region methylation, and CpG level methylation identification. As illustrated in FIGs. 11A-C, methylation data may be more consistent and accurate in multi-omic assay analysis as compared to DNA methylation analysis alone. FIG. 11A shows genomic region methylation concordance of DNA methylation assays alone compared to multi-omic assay analysis for gene bodies, gene promoters, and CpG islands. FIG. 11B shows an example of data relating to average promoter methylation in a tissue at promoters of genes expressed in a cell type A and a cell ty pe B. FIG. 11C shows an example of data relating to methylation percentage in regions hypomethylated in B cells for blood, colon tissue, liver tissue, lung tissue, and melanoma tissue.

[0177] The multi-omic assay may be used to generate multi-omic data simultaneously from the same biological sample. The simultaneous generation of multi-omic data from the same biological sample may improve detection of multi-omic biomarker variations. The improved detection may comprise reduced error, reduced bias, and reduced noise in multi-omic data, as DNA and RNA may be simultaneously measured from the same biological sample. The same biological sample may comprise the same population of cells or the same subset of cells of aWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601population of cells. The same biological sample may comprise the same tissue. FIGs. 12A-B show gene expression corresponding to CNVs. FIG. 12A shows example data relating to gene expression corresponding to CNVs for a multi-omic assay. FIG. 12B shows example data relating to gene expression corresponding to CNVs for single-omic DNA and RNA assays alone.

[0178] In some cases, a multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal model can be trained based at least in part on multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal information associated with one or more time points. The multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal information can be longitudinal information. In some cases, DNA features, RNA features, methylation features, and protein features can be combined and associated with a first time point. The combined features are associated with a first time point because they are captured at the first time point. The same types of DNA features, RNA features, methylation features, and protein features can be combined and associated with a second time point. The combined features are associated with a second time point because they are captured at the second time point. The combined features of the first time point and the combined features of the second time point can be used as input to train the multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal model on longitudinal multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal data. The training data may comprise combined features of the same cell ty pes collected or measured at two or more different time points.

[0179] The multi-omic model, multianalyte model, or multimodal model can determine one or more synthetic tumor fractionation values of combined multi-omic data based at least in part on longitudinal multi-omic data, for example longitudinal multi-omic training data or reference data. The multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal model can be configured to match one or more input groups of DNA features, RNA features, methylation features, or protein features, or any combination thereof, with one or more corresponding reference feature corresponding to a first time point. The multi-omic model, multianalyte model, or multimodal model can be configured to match one or more input groups of DNA features, RNA features, methylation features, or protein features, or any combination thereof, with one or more corresponding reference feature corresponding to a second time point. The multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal model can be configured to determine one or more characteristics, such as one or more tumor fractionation values, of the input multi-omic data based at least in part on the reference multi-omic data corresponding to the first time point, the multi-omic data corresponding to the second time point, or both. The multi-omic, multianalyte, or multimodal model can be configured to determine one or more characteristics, such as one or more tumor fractionation values, of the input multi-omic data based at least in part on changes betweenWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601corresponding reference multi-omic data at a first time point and corresponding reference multi-omic data at a second time point.

[0180] In some embodiments, the method comprises simultaneously capturing two or more types of multi-omic data. The multi-omic data types may comprise proteomic information, genomic information, transcriptomic information, and epigenetic information from a biological sample. The multi-omic data may be captured from a single biological sample. The two or more types of multi-omic data may be captured from the sample biological sample. The two or more multi-omic data types may be captured from the same biological sample simultaneously. In some embodiments, the method comprises simultaneously capturing genomic, transcriptomic, epigenetic, and proteomic information from the same biological sample. These measurements may be used in analysis of multi-omic information. The multi-omic information may be analyzed to reduce or eliminate errors associated with sequencing separate -omic data. The errors reduced or eliminated may comprise reducing or eliminating batch effects associated with the individual sequencing of each -omic layer. The errors reduced or eliminated may comprise reducing or eliminating noise associated with the individual sequencing of each -omic layer. The errors reduced or eliminated may comprise reducing or eliminating batch effects and technical noise associated with the individual sequencing of each -omic layer. This improved data quality along with the information being captured from the same set of cells may be used to determine a complex biological relationship between the -omic layers. Errors comprising noise or batch effects, or both, may be reduced by about between 1% and 100%. Batch effects may be reduced by about 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, or more than 10%. Batch effects may be reduced by about 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99%, or more than 99%. Batch effects may be eliminated. Batch effects may be eliminated for one or more layers or types of -omic information. Batch effects may be reduced or eliminated for 1, 2, 3, 4. 5, or more than 5 layers or types of -omic information. Batch effects may be reduced or eliminated for all layers or types of -omic information. Technical noise may be reduced by about 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, or more than 10%. Technical noise may be reduced by about 20%. 30%. 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 99%, or more than 99%. Technical noise may be eliminated. Batch effects may be eliminated for one or more layers or types of -omic information. Technical noise may be reduced or eliminated for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or more than 5 layers or types of -omic information. Technical noise may be reduced or eliminated for all layers or types of -omic information.

[0181] Variant Allele Frequency (VAF) in mutations found in both DNA and RNA may be approximately the same ( i.e. loglO(ratio) = loglO(l) = 0 ). Deviations from this expected ratio may be caused at least in part by technical noise. The technical noise may comprise sequencingWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601artifacts or library' preparation artifacts. FIG. 13A shows VAF correlation between amulti-omic assay and single-omic DNA and RNA assays alone. FIG. 13B shows a ratio of DNA VAF to RNA VAF for a multi-omic assay as compared to a single-omic sequencing assay.

[0182] Reads containing true point mutations may be present in both forward and reverse strands of DNA in about equal quantities. Deviation from a ratio of 1.0 [loglO(l) = 0] (Equal # of Forward / Reverse Mutated Reads) may be attributable at least in part to sequencing errors or other technical errors. FIG. 14 illustrates a comparison of multi-omic strand bias and single-omic strand bias, illustrating a consistent reduction of strand bias for multi-omic assay analysis across technical replicates.

[0183] Genome-wide mutational concordance may be analyzed by comparing mutational profiles of variants across types of mutations. Mutational profiles of SNVs may be determined by quantifying a number of a particular mutation type (e g. OT) determined in selected flanking genomic nucleotides. FIG. 15A shows a mutational profile of multi-omic variants in deep sequencing as compared to multi-omic sequencing as described herein (TrinitySeq). FIG. 15B shows a mutational profile of multiomic variants in deep sequencing as compared to multi-omic sequencing as described herein (TrinitySeq).

This illustrates increased accuracy for variant identification in multi-omic assay analysis as compared to single-omic sequencing analysis.

[0184] In some embodiments, methylated protein barcode sequences of multi-omic assays may be integrated into TNA libraries of multi-omic libraries that are directly quantified via qPCR assays or next generation sequencing (NGS). FIG. 17A illustrates protein concentration analysis of an FIT-29 cell lysate with five barcoded antibodies in a colorectal cancer sample. The antibodies may comprise annexin, CD51, cofilin, enolase, and tubulin. Barcodes were analyzed by qPCR. The negative control was a no protein (PBS only) sample tested with the same antibody panel comprising annexin, CD51, cofilin, enolase, and tubulin. FIG. 17B illustrates an example of data relating to multiple different cell lysates analyzed with a five antibody panel comprising annexin, CD51, cofilin, enolase, and tubulin. Antibody barcodes were measured by qPCR (x-axis) and short read DNA sequencing (y-axis).

Antibody barcodes were measured by NGS (y-axis) across 8 replicates.

[0185] As illustrated in FIG. 18A, raw NGS counts for antibody-oligo barcodes for five housekeeping proteins Annexin V, Cofilin I, Integrin oV5 (CD51), Tubulin A, and Vimentin were measured in six cancer and non-cancer cell lines. The cell lines comprised B cells, Calu3, Colo829, Hepa RG, HepG2, and HT29, as well as an orthogonal protein control. As illustrated in FIG. 18B, fractional protein content was measured by multi-omic assay analysis as described herein (TrinitySeq) using six different protein detection antibodies comprising Annexin V, Cofilin I, Integrin oV5 (CD51), Tubulin A, and Vimentin. Two samples were tested, one complex biological sample (human cell line HT29), one control pure protein sample (ovalbumin alone). FIG. 18C illustrates an example of data relating to protein measurement in multi-omic assay analysis as described herein (TrinitySeq) using a titration of test protein (ovalbumin) over four orders of magnitude. FIGs. 19A-D illustrate examples of data relating to multi-omic assay analysis protein measurement titration quantifications based on extracted barcode tags.

FIG. 19C illustrates an example of data for relative proportion of protein concentration for detected proteins only.

[0186] Multi-omic library construction methods as described herein capture information on multiple -omics channels with high quality’ and reproducibility across targets. Custom deconvolution tags may be used to identify cDNA species in the final library. The custom deconvolution tags may be derived from RNA. The custom deconvolution tags may be able to separate the cDNA species from the DNA sequencing reads and methylation reads in the multi-omic library. Methylated protein quantification barcodes may be attached to reads with molecular identifiers to achieve a high accuracy in detection of targets. FIG. 20A illustrates a flow diagram relating to splitting DNA and RNA channels based on methylated random octamer RNA tags, then subsequently extracting protein quantification barcodes from the deconvoluted DNA and RNA reads. FIG. 20B illustrates an average base qualify of NGS reads generated simultaneously from the same biological sample using multi-omic assay analysis as described herein. FIG. 20C illustrates a number of reads generated simultaneously from the same biological sample using multi-omic assay analysis as described herein. FIG. 20D illustrates an example of data relating to accuracy of RNA deconvolution based on sequence tags. The example data relates to comparing true TNA libraries from multi-omic sequencing as described herein comprising about 15% to 20% barcodes species, against libraries with only RNA or only DNA single-omic data libraries. The example data illustrates a high rate of RNA sequence tagsWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601in the RNA-only single-omic libraries. This supports high sensitivity of this deconvolution method in multi-omic assays as described herein.

[0187] FIG. 21A illustrates an example of data relating to CpH artificial methylation in cDNA species shown across sequencing reads. The CpH artificial methylation may comprise methylating CTPs during cDNA synthesis. The CpH retention rate may relate to the fraction of CpH events that are not converted by methyl conversion process because of methyl protection. Methylated CTP included during cDNA synthesis may be a secondary control for DNA and RNA deconvolution. FIG. 21B illustrates data relating to an average methylation status of CpH sites in deconvoluted RNA reads as compared to DNA reads.

It is intended that the following claims define the scope of the invention and that methods and structures within the scope of these claims and their equivalents be covered thereby.EXAMPLESExample 1; Methylated Total Nucleic Acid Sequencing (mTNA-Seq) Library Prep

[0213] An example of a method for mTNA library prep is illustrated in FIGs. 1A-1C. As illustrated in exemplary FIG. 1A, for example, mTNA library preparation 100 first comprised performing ribosomal DNA depletion on an RNA sample 101 to produce r-RNA depleted RNA 102. To perform ribosomal DNA depletion, for example, in a PCR tube (e.g. Ribo-zero) rRNA removal solution was combined with a sample 101 at a volume proportional to the amount of RNA in the sample 101. For example 2pL of rRNA removal solution was used. For example, the volume of the RNase-free water was adjusted in the total RNA sample to a final volume of lOpL. Reaction buffer (e.g. Ribo-zero) was then added, for example, at a volume of 8pL. The solution was mixed gently, for example, by pipetting up and down.

[0214] The rRNA depletion was then continued by performing incubation. The incubation included, for example, placing the sample 101 in a thermocycler to incubate at 65°C for about five minutes. After about five minutes of incubation, the sample 101 was then put on ice for about five minutes.

[0215] The rRNA depletion was then continued in the example shown in FIG. 1A by adding 40pL of magnetic beads to the RNA mixture. The magnetic beads were washed, for example, prior to being added with magnetic beads wash solution. The RNA mixture was then incubatedWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601for about 15 minutes at room temperature, for example to facilitate rRNA hybridization to the beads. During incubation the RNA mixture was gently mixed by inversion or vortexing briefly about even' 2-3 minutes, for example.

[0216] The rRNA depletion was then continued, for example by magnetic separation. The RNA mixture was placed on a magnetic stand for about 5 minutes, for example, or until the sample was clear. The beads pelleted, for example at the side of the tube. The supernatant was transferred to a new RNase-free tube, for example, the supernatant containing rRNA-depleted RNA.

[0217] The rRNA depletion was then continued with cleanup of the rRNA-depleted RNA, as two volumes, for example about lOOpL of RNA binding buffer was added to the supernatant from, for example, the RNA clean and concentrator kit. The mixture was mixed thoroughly by, for example, pipetting. The mixture was then loaded onto the RNA clean and concentrator column. The loaded column was then centrifuged at about 13,000 rpm for about 1 minute, for example. The column was then washed with, for example, about 400pL of about 80% ethanol twice. The column was, for example, centrifuged after each wash. The rRNA-depleted RNA was then eluted using about 20uL of RNase-free water. The column was eluted by, for example, centrifuging the column at about 13,000 rpm for about 1 minute into a clean RNase-free tube. The elute was the rRNA-depleted RNA sample 102.

[0218] The rRNA depletion was then continued by quantify ing the rRNA-depleted RNA sample 102 using a Qubit™ RNA HS assay. The quality of the rRNA depletion in the rRNA-depleted RNA sample 102 was then assessed by, for example, running an aliquot of the rRNA depletion sample on a bioanalyzer, for example an Agilent Bioanalyzer™ or TapeStation™. Reduction or absence of rRNA peaks, for example, indicated successful depletion of the rRNA-depleted RNA sample 102. The rRNA-depleted RNA sample 102 was then stored at about -80°C.

[0219] Next, the nucleic acid fragmentation was performed on the rRNA-depleted RNA sample 102 to produce the fragmented rRNA-depleted RNA sample 103. The fragmentation may be performed by sonification. The sonification may be performed using a Covaris™ ultrasonicator.

[0220] Next, for example as illustrated in FIG. 1A, RNA adapter ligation was performed on the fragmented rRNA-depleted RNA sample 103 using RNA ligase to produce a ligated RNA mixture 104. Heat denaturation was performed by, for example, combining about lOpL to about 15pL of the fragmented rRNA-depleted RNA sample 103 with about l uL of a 3' ligation adapter in a microcentrifuge tube. In some cases, between IpL and about 25 pL of the fragmented rRNA-depleted RNA sample 103 can be combined with about IpL of a 3' ligation adapter in a microcentrifuge tube. Next, for example, incubation was performed on the mixture at about 65°C for about five minutes to denature secondary RNA structures.WSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601

[0221] The ligation reaction, for example, was then performed by adding about lOpL of the 3' ligation buffer to the denatured RNA adapter mixture. Then, for example, about 3pL of the 3' ligation enzyme mix was added to the reaction. The reaction mixture was then incubated at about 25°C for about 1 hour, for example. A heated lid was used and set to about 50°C for condensation prevention. The ligated RNA mixture 104 was produced.

[0222] Next, for example illustrated in FIG. 1A, cDNA synthesis from RNA was then performed on the ligated RNA mixture 104 to produce the cDNA sample 105. The reaction setup was performed by adding about 8pL of first-strand reaction buffer to the ligated RNA mixture 104. Then about IpL of murine RNase inhibitor was added to the reaction mix for degradation protection. Next, for example, about IpL of ProtoScript II™ reverse transcriptase was added to reverse the transcription process. The reaction mix was then incubated at about 42°C for about 1 hour to facilitate reverse transcription. A heated lid was used and set to about 50°C for condensation prevention. The SPRI bead clean-up was then performed. The cDNA sample 105 was produced from these operations.

[0223] Next, for example illustrated in FIG. 1A, end repair and hairpin adapter ligation was performed on the cDNA sample 105 to produce the hairpin adapter ligation sample 106. To perform the end repair reaction setup, about 3.5pL of NEBNext™ End Prep reaction buffer (NEB, catalog no. E7647) and about 1.5pL of NEBNext™ End Prep enz me mix were added to the cDNA sample 105 and to a spike-in control mixture. The DNA enzyme mix and the spike-in control mixture were then incubated, for example at 20°C for about 30 minutes, followed by a second incubation at about 65°C for about 30 minutes.

[0224] Next, hairpin ligation was performed by adding about 3.75pL of NEBNext™ Adapter 1 to the reaction mix. Adapter 1 was methylated at all cytosines, for example. Additionally, about 0.5pL of ligation enhancer and about 15pL of NEBNext™ ligation master mix (NEB, catalog no. E7647) were added to the mixture along with Adapter 1. The mixture was incubated at about 20°C for about 15 minutes and SPRI bead clean-up was performed to produce the hairpin adapter ligation sample 106.

[0225] Next, as for example illustrated in FIG. IB, strand separation and synthesis was performed on the hairpin ligation sample 106 to produce the separated ssDNA strand sample 112. The hairpin ligation double stranded cDNA of the hairpin ligation sample 106 were prepared by, for example, adding to the hairpin ligation sample 106 about 2pL of 1 OX NEB Buffer™ (NEB, catalog no. B7004S), about 2pL of dNTPs of about lOmM each (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog no. R0192). about 2pL of Klenow (exo-)™ (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog no. P7010-LC), and about 2pL of T4 PNK (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog no. EK0032). TheWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601mix was then incubated at about 37°C for about 30 minutes, for example. The DNA was denatured by incubating the mix at about 95°C for about 2 minutes.

[0226] As illustrated in FIG. IB, strand synthesis was then performed to create single-hairpin ligated DNA sample 113. The reaction was then cooled at, for example about -0.1°C per second for reannealing. This created single hairpin synthesized DNA strands in the ligated DNA sample 113

[0227] Next, as illustrated in FIG. IB, PCR adapter ligation was performed on the ligated DNA sample 113 to produce the PCR adapter ligation sample 114. PCR adapter ligation was performed, for example, by adding to the ligated DNA sample 113 about 2.5pL of Adapter 2 with methylated cytosines, along with about 0.5pL of ligation enhancer, about 15pL of ligation master mix (NEB, catalog no. E7647). and about 12pL of nuclease-free water (Sigma, catalog no. W4502). The sample was then incubated at about 20°C for about 15 minutes and SPRI bead clean-up was performed. The PCR adapter ligation sample 114 was produced.

[0228] Next, as illustrated in FIG. IB, TET2 oxidation was performed for protection of methylated cytosols in the PCR adapter ligation sample 114 to produce the protected methylated sample 115. TET2 oxidation was performed by adding to the PCR adapter ligation sample 114, for example, about lOpL of reconstituted TET25x supplement buffer (10 mM a-Ketoglutarate, 0.25 M Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 10 mM ATP), about IpL of UDP glucose (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog no. EO0831), about IpL of T4 beta-glucosyltransferase (Thermo Fisher Scientific, catalog no. EO0831), about IpL of lOOmM DTT, about 2pL of TET2, and about 5pLof 500mM FE(II) sulfate hexahydrate (diluted 1:1250 with nuclease-free water). The reaction mix was then incubated at about 37°C for about 60 minutes and SPRI bead clean-up was performed. The protected methylated sample 115 was produced.

[0229] Next, APOBEC deamination was performed on the protected methylated sample 115 as illustrated in, for example FIG. IB to produce double stranded DNA 116. The APOBEC-A3A reaction mix was used in APOBEC deamination and was produced by adding to the protected methylated sample 115 about 12.75pL of nuclease-free water, about 17.5pL of 4x APOBEC buffer (200 mM BisTris pH 6.1, 0.4% Tween), about 1.75pL of lOOmM ATP (Sigma, catalog no. A6559), about 3.5pL lOOmM MgCh (Sigma, catalog no. M1028), about 2pL of APOBEC-A3A, and about 2.5pL of UvrD helicase. The reaction mix was then incubated at about 37°C for about 90 minutes to facilitate double stranded DNA unwinding. The double stranded DNA sample 116 was produced. The unwinding of the double stranded DNA sample 116 resulted in the TNA Library strands shown in, for example, FIG. 1C.

[0230] The TNA Library strands of FIG. 1C, for example, are strands of unwound single-strand DNA or RNA that are each include methylated sites, an unwound hairpin loop fragment, one orWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601more adapter fragments, and PCR primers. The unwound ligated ssDNA strand includes the unwound ssDNA 121, the unwound annealed hairpin loop fragment 122, a first adapter fragment 123, and PCR primers 125. The unwound ligated RNA strand includes the RNA 126, a first adapter fragment 123, a second adapter fragment 124, and PCR primers 125.

[0231] To amplify the ligated single stranded DNA and RNA as illustrated in FIG. 1C, PCR amplification was performed. The PCR reaction mix was prepared by adding to a sample of the strands illustrated in FIG. 1C about 5pL of Abclonal™ Unique Dual Index Primers for Illumina (Abclonal no. RK21624_SetA) and about 25pL of 2X KAPA HiFi U+ Polymerase (KK2802). PCR cycling was performed for 6 cycles for about 80ng of gDNA, about 7 cycles for lOng of cfDNA, and about 8 cycles for about 2ng of cfDNA. PCR was performed on the various samples using a PCR program. The PCR program included an initial denaturation at about 98°C for about 30 seconds. Next, the second denaturation was performed at about 98°C for about 10 seconds. Next, annealing was performed at about 62°C for about 30 seconds, followed by the extension at about 65°C for about 60 seconds. The final extension was then performed at about 65°C for about 5 minutes. SPRI bead clean-up was performed.

[0232] The libraries were quantified, for example, using TapeStation™ D5000 reagents and library quantification methods disclosed herein. Sequencing was performed using methods disclosed herein.Example 2: Protocol for Preparation of Methylated Total Nucleic Acid (mTNA-Seq) Libraries in Tissue Samples

[0568] FIG. 23A shows an example of a workflow for Methylated Total Nucleic Acid Sequencing (mTNA-Seq) library preparation for a plasma sample. The extraction comprises extracting cfDNA and cfRNA from the plasma sample for multi-omic analysis. FIG. 23B shows an example of end-state sequencing molecules that are RNA-derived and DNA-derived for a plasma sample.Example 4: Methylated Total Nucleic Acid Sequencing (mTNA-Seq) Protein Library Prep

[0569] To prepare the protein libraries for mTNA-Seq, as illustrated in for example FIG. 2, antibody-oligonucleotide conjugates were designed, methylated, and conjugated according to methods disclosed herein.

[0570] Next, antibody-oligo conjugates were incubated with proteins as shown in FIG. 2 in the incubation mix 201. The protein sample was diluted to the desired concentration, for example, using an incubation buffer (PBS with 0.05% Tween-20). The antibody-oligo conjugate probes were diluted in the incubation buffer for example, to ensure an excess of probes relative to an expected protein concentration to form the incubation mix 201. The diluted protein sample was then combined with the antibody-oligo conjugate probes in a microcentrifuge tube. The incubation mix 201 was incubated at room temperature at about, for example, 4°C for about 1 to 2 hours with gentle agitation, to facilitate binding between the antibody-oligo probes and the proteins. In some embodiments, washing is performed using gentle washes with an incubation buffer to remove unbound proteins.

[0571] Next, as illustrated in FIG. 2, spin column filtration was performed to separate bound antibody-oligo conjugates from unbound antibody-oligo conjugates. The incubation mix 201 was added to a spin column having a molecular weight limit that retained the protein-antibody-oligo conjugates complexes 202 while allowing free antibody-oligo conjugates to pass through. The column was centrifuged and the flow-through was collected. The retained sample was the bound antibody-oligo conjugates complexes 202.

[0572] Next, the oligonucleotides were released from the antibody-oligo conjugates complexes 202 as shown, for example, in FIG. 2 producing released oligonucleotides 203 that were then purified. The oligonucleotides were released by adding Dithiothreitol (DTT) at a concentration of, for example, about between 10 mM and 50mM in a buffer to the antibody-oligo complexes sample 202 to reduce disulfide bonds. The mix was then incubated at about 37°C for about 30 to 60 minutes, to release the oligonucleotides. Next, the released oligonucleotides 203 were purified by binding the released oligonucleotides to magnetic beads. The oligonucleotides bound to the beads were then washed with a wash buffer to remove remaining proteins and contaminants. The purified oligonucleotides were then eluted from the beads into a cleanWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601microcentrifuge tube using an elution buffer. The released and purified oligonucleotides 203 were prepared for PCR by annealing PCR primers to create the oligonucleotide library preparation sample 205, which was then replicated with PCR for example, to generate the oligonucleotide PCR sample 204.

[0573] As show n in FIG. 3, the oligonucleotide PCR strands are deaminated, for example, and unwound to be ligated to ssDNA or RNA fragments, or the unwound hairpin fragments thereof. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the oligonucleotide PCR strands 307 were methylated and annealed to PCR primers 303 as described in the exemplary protein library prep method. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the oligonucleotide PCR strands 307 were annealed to an adapter fragment 306. The adapter fragment was annealed to an unwound hairpin fragment 305 which is annealed to an RNA adapter fragment 302 or to an ssDNA fragment 304 or an RNA fragment 301.

[0574] The protein library may be linearized using linearization and methyl conversion. The linearization and methyl conversion may be performed using a bisulfite or enzymatic methyl kit. Lysates may be used to co-extract genomicDNA, totalRNA, and protein from a single tissue sample.Example 5: Preparation of Methylated Total Nucleic Acid Sequencing (mTNA-Seq) Linear Protein libraries in Tissue Samples

[1580] Lysate biotinylation and cleanup was first performed for streptavidin bead capture of proteins. Streptavidin beads were washed and prepared for binding to proteins. Next, the streptavidin beads were incubated with lysate. Probes such as AOC were incubated with lysate on the streptavidin beads to generate a probe-target complex formation. PCR was performed for on-bead amplification of oligonucleotide conjugates. Restriction digestion was performed. Custom Y-shaped adapters were prepared for annealing to the restricted protein molecules. Poly(A) selection of RNAs was then performed. Next, cDNA synthesis was performed in two steps. A first strand cDNA synthesis was performed, then a second strand cDNA synthesis was performed using an RNase enzyme. DNA fragmentation was then performed to fragment the DNA molecules. The fragmented DNA molecules were pooled with the cDNA molecules. End repair and dA-Tailing was then performed on the pooled fragmented DNA and cDNA molecules. Hairpin adapter ligation was then performed to anneal a hairpin adapter to at least a portion of the pooled fragmented DNA molecules and cDNA molecules. Exonuclease treatment was then applied to the ligated hairpin pooled DNA and cDNA molecules. A USER treatment was then performed on the exonuclease-treated ligated hairpin pooled DNA and cDNA molecules to remove the hairpin adapters. The treated strands of pooled DNA and cDNA molecules were then filled with methyl dCTP. Stubby adapters were then ligated to the treated pooled DNA and cDNA molecules. Bisulfite conversion and linearization was then performed on the treated pooled DNA and cDNA molecules. PCR amplification was then performed on the treated pooled DNA and cDNA molecules and the restricted protein molecules annealed to the Y-shaped adapters. The amplified molecules were indexed in the multi-omic library.Example 11: hairy TNA-Seq and Linear protein Library Preparation in Tissue SamplesWSGR Docket No. 68738-702.601
