Instrument: NextSeq 500
Strategy: ChIP-Seq
Source: GENOMIC
Selection: ChIP
Layout: SINGLE
Construction protocol: For ChIP-seq, cells were crosslinked with 1% formaldehyde for 10' at 37°C. After cell lysis, nuclei were resuspended in RIPA buffer and sonicated (Bransson) until average fragment size was below 500 bps. Antibodies were bound to Protein-A/G-sepharose or Dyna beads and incubated with the chromatin. After sequential washing and elution with 1% SDS, crosslinking was reverted and DNA was purified using Qiagen PCR purification columns. Libraries were constructed following manufacturer's instructions (NEBNext ChIP-Seq Sample Prep Kit). Briefly, ChIP DNA was end repaired, A tailed and Illumina adaptors were ligated. DNA fragments of about 200 bps were cut out of an agarose gel and extracted with a Qiagen PCR purification column. Afterwards, DNA was enriched with 18 PCR cycles, fragment size was controlled with Biorad Experion system and quantified using picogreen assay.
