Abstract
Lateral loading methods of use in high-throughput methods for screening large populations of variant proteins are provided. The methods utilize a flow cell encompassing large-scale arrays of microcapillaries, where each microcapillary comprises a solution containing a variant protein, an immobilized target molecule, and a reporter element. Immobilized target molecules may include any molecule of interest, including proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and other biomolecules.
