Abstract

Described herein are methods, compositions, kits and systems for multiplexed detection of target molecules from a sample. In some embodiments, the methods, compositions, kits and systems can be used to perform multiplexed protein analysis of a sample (e.g., a sample comprising a small number of cells or a single-cell sample). In some embodiments, the same sample subjected to a multiplexed protein analysis using the methods, compositions, kits and systems described herein can also be subjected to a nucleic acid (e.g., RNAs, microRNAs, and/or DNA) analysis, thereby creating an integrated expression profiling from a limited amount of sample.
