Abstract

“The present disclosure provides methods and systems for sequencing proteins. One or more methods disclosed herein may use linkers having an amino acid-reactive group and an additional reactive moiety that may be used to couple a polymerizable molecule. The linker may couple to a polymerizable molecule and an amino acid of a peptide and a capture moiety via the polymerizable molecule, followed by cleavage of the amino acid from the peptide. Further processing and analysis may be conducted using, for example, nanopores or nanogaps. ”
