This automated NGS-based proteomics solution with SOMAmer technology and Illumina sequencing and analysis detects and quantifies 9.5K human proteins in 2.5 days.
Illumina Protein Prep enables discovery and quantification of human proteins across more than 200 biological pathways using a SOMAmer-based proteomics assay with an NGS readout.
SOMAmer Reagents used in the Illumina Protein Prep assay are rigorously characterized by shape specificity and polyionic competition and orthogonally confirmed by methods such as mass spectrometry and ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay).
SOMAmer Reagents provide market-leading reproducibility with ~5.5%* CV and femtomolar sensitivity with over a 10-log dynamic range.
*Expected median CV calculated using samples from healthy donors.
The entire workflow is automated on a single platform, providing an end-to-end solution for processing up to 340 samples and 44 controls per week, with seamlessly integrated secondary analysis pipelines and comprehensive tertiary analysis solutions.

Human serum or plasma samples are used as input to the SomaScan assay, followed by Illumina library prep, automated on Illumina Protein Prep Automation System, and sequenced on a NovaSeq System.
SOMAmer Reagents (blue) contain a photocleavable linker and biotin. Bound to streptavidin beads, they capture specific proteins and tag with biotin (yellow). UV light breaks the linker, releasing SOMAmer-protein complexes, which are captured on new beads and eluted for quantification using NGS.
Following the SomaScan assay, SOMAmer Reagent abundances are converted to barcoded sequencing-ready libraries using a hybridization-based approach.
