• Launch of improved Library Prep Kit V2 for streamlined sample preparation
• Development of integrated software platform for unified data analysis

Negative

• None.

BRANFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Quantum-Si Incorporated (Nasdaq: QSI) (“Quantum-Si,” “QSI” or the “Company”), The Protein Sequencing Company^™, announces its participation in the upcoming Festival of Genomics UK, taking place on January 29–30, 2025, at ExCeL London. As part of the event, Richard Broadhead, Ph.D., will deliver a presentation highlighting the latest innovations in Next-Generation Protein Sequencing™ and its transformative impact on proteomics and multiomics research.

Dr. Broadhead’s talk, titled "Advancing Multiomics with Next-Generation Protein Sequencing™: High-Resolution Protein and Proteoform Characterization with an Accessible Workflow," will explore how Quantum-Si’s groundbreaking Platinum^® Pro platform is reshaping the proteomics landscape. The presentation will delve into the single-molecule protein sequencing workflow that empowers researchers with unprecedented precision in protein identification and proteoform characterization.

A key focus will be the ability to distinguish proteoforms arising from single amino acid changes, alternative splicing, and post-translational modifications. This level of detail is crucial for understanding how genomic and transcriptomic findings translate to cellular phenotypes. Integrating proteomic data with these other multiomic data types enhances researchers’ ability to map complex biological pathways and identify novel biomarkers. Dr. Broadhead will also showcase Quantum-Si’s latest advancements:

• Protein Barcoding Kit: This innovative tool enhances protein screening through multiplexed peptide barcoding, delivering greater efficiency and reducing costs.
• Library Prep Kit, V2: Designed to streamline the sample preparation process, this kit minimizes hands-on time while improving data quality, simplifying the adoption of proteomics in multiomics workflows.
• Platinum^® Pro’s Integrated Software: By unifying data generation and analysis, Platinum’s software ensures an accessible and efficient workflow, enabling seamless integration of proteomics with genomic and transcriptomic research.

As the Festival of Genomics UK continues to drive conversation and innovation within the genomics community, Quantum-Si is excited to contribute by presenting new solutions that bridge the gap between genomics and proteomics, unlocking comprehensive biological insights and accelerating discovery in multiomics research.
