Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP): For DNA Binding Proteins and DNA Binding Sites Analysis

Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-Seq) is a well-established method for identifying binding sites for DNA-binding proteins. This method involves (1) cross-linkage of DNA binding proteins to DNA, (2) DNA shearing, (3) immunoprecipitation of DNA fragments bound by a protein of interest, and (4) sequencing of precipitated DNA fragments. Resulting sequencing reads are aligned to the corresponding genome, and genome areas bound by the protein of interest are expected to…
