Business Wire
Quantum-Si Incorporated (Nasdaq: QSI) (“Quantum-Si,” “QSI” or
the “Company”), The Protein Sequencing Company™, today announced
that Liberate Bio, a Boston-based biotech unleashing the potential
of genetic medicines with novel delivery vehicles, has integrated
the Platinum® Next-Generation Protein Sequencer™ (“NGPS”) into
their platform for developing novel gene therapies with improved
targeting capabilities. Liberate is using the sequencer’s protein
barcoding application to screen lipid nanoparticle delivery
vehicles in vivo, with a simple readout of delivery and translation
efficiency, dramatically increasing the precision, speed, and
efficiency of their gene therapy discovery and development
efforts.
Platinum enables advanced insights into the proteome, providing
characterization of protein sequence and variation, at single-amino
acid resolution. Quantum-Si’s protein barcoding application allows
researchers to simultaneously tag, track, select, and measure a set
of target proteins, with both in vitro and in vivo screening
applications. And unlike alternative approaches such as mass
spectrometry, it does not require expensive equipment or
specialized expertise.
The integration of Quantum-Si’s barcoding application into
Liberate’s platform has already shown transformative potential.
“The integration of Platinum’s barcoding application into our
workflow represents a significant step forward, allowing us to
accelerate our discovery and screening efforts with reduced costs
and shortened timelines. This innovation is helping us to push the
boundaries of what is possible in the development of targeted
genetic therapeutics,” said Walter Strapps, Ph.D., Chief Scientific
Officer of Liberate Bio.
Liberate’s work with Platinum underscores the transformative
impact that NGPS can have on the pharmaceutical and biotech
industry, particularly in gene therapy and drug discovery.
“Platinum’s barcoding application is revolutionizing the way
researchers approach drug discovery and development. Liberate’s
work exemplifies how this technology can unlock new possibilities
in drug discovery, driving progress in the field,” said Jeff
Hawkins, Chief Executive Officer of Quantum-Si.

commercialization activities; the commercialization and adoption of
the Company’s existing products and the success of any product the
Company may offer in the future; the potential attributes and
benefits of the Company’s commercialized Platinum™ protein
sequencing instrument and kits and the Company’s other products
once commercialized; the Company's ability to obtain and maintain
regulatory approval for its products, and any related restrictions
and limitations of any approved product; the Company's ability to
identify, in-license or acquire additional technology; the
Company's ability to maintain its existing lease, license,
manufacture and supply agreements; the Company's ability to compete
with other companies currently marketing or engaged in the
development or commercialization of products and services that
serve customers engaged in proteomic analysis, many of which have
greater financial and marketing resources than the Company; the
size and growth potential of the markets for the Company's products
and services, and its ability to serve those markets once
commercialized, either alone or in partnership with others; the
Company's estimates regarding future expenses, future revenue,
