Quantum-Si Detects 19 Amino Acids in Proteus Program
05:05 PM EDT, 10/08/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Quantum-Si (QSI) said Thursday it demonstrated detection of 19 amino acids in its Proteus protein sequencing program and is working to deploy the capability into a developmental sequencing kit for routine use on integrated Proteus instruments. The progress follows interim Proteus data presented at the 2026 World HUPO Congress, where a developmental kit detected 18 amino acids. Quantum-Si remains confident in demonstrating detection of all 20 amino acids by year-end and continues to target commercial launch of Proteus in Q2 of 2027, according to the company.
Updated Version 2 - SpaceX Targets U.S. Wireless Operators Through Spectrum Acquisition
Reuters, October 8 – SpaceX reached an agreement on Thursday to acquire a nationwide portfolio of low-frequency spectrum, enabling Elon Musk’s satellite business to mount direct orbital competition against traditional U.S. wireless telecom giants. While Starlink Mobile’s existing global 2 GHz mid-band spectrum will provide high bandwidth capacity, this new spectrum will allow its signals to penetrate obstacles. The financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed. This move accelerates billionaire Musk’s ambitions to bypass traditional wireless infrastructure and provide direct cellular network connections to smartphones from orbit. Low-frequency bands are highly valued in telecommunications for their ability to travel longer distances and penetrate dense structures such as walls and tree cover, thereby overcoming a major technical barrier previously faced by satellite mobile networks. The transaction involves the acquisition of 100% of the nationwide 800 MHz spectrum portfolio held by private equity firm Grain Management and is still subject to regulatory approval from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Telecom stocks fell as investors feared competition from SpaceX could trigger a fierce price war and erode their market share in the already saturated U.S. wireless market. The shares of T-Mobile US, Verizon, and AT&T all dropped more than 5% in after-hours trading. The FCC this week also approved Starlink Mobile’s application for a second-generation satellite constellation, authorizing SpaceX to launch 15,000 satellites worldwide optimized for the 2 GHz band.
