[Abstract]  This protocol is designed to obtain base-resolution information on the level of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) in CpGs without the need for bisulfite modification. It relies on (i) the capture of hydroxymethylated sequences by a procedure known as ‘selective chemical labeling’ (see Szulwach et al., 2012) and (ii) the digestion of the captured DNA by exonucleases. After Illumina sequencing of the digested DNA fragments, an ad hoc bioinformatic pipeline extracts the information for further downstream analysis. [摘要]  该协议旨在获得CpGs中5-羟甲基胞嘧啶(5hmC)水平的碱基分辨率信息,而无需亚硫酸氢盐修饰。 它依赖于(i)通过称为“选择性化学标记”(参见Szulwach等人,2012)的方法捕获羟甲基化序列和(ii)通过外切核酸酶消化捕获的DNA。 在消化的DNA片段的Illumina测序之后,特设的生物信息学管道提取信息用于进一步的下游分析。

【背景】基因组DNA中胞嘧啶的甲基化可以被蛋白质读取,并且主要被翻译成基因沉默。基因组中的大多数CpG二核苷酸是甲基化的,包括位于基因调控区如增强子的那些。然而,当需要时,这些CpG可以通过Ten Eleven Translocation(TET)酶将甲基氧化并且通过碱基切除修复系统用未甲基化的胞嘧啶置换来去甲基化。 5-羟甲基胞嘧啶(5hmC)是5-甲基胞嘧啶的第一个氧化衍生物,并且在基因组中绘制该修饰的碱基提供了关于正在进行活性去甲基化的区域的信息。尽管选择性化学标记(SCL)可以非常特异地检测5hmC,但该技术的分辨率受DNA片段大小的限制,特别是当捕获的DNA中存在多个CpG时。为了提高分辨率,我们引入了使用外切核酸酶的消化步骤,所述核酸外切酶将DNA分子修剪成靠近羟甲基化的胞嘧啶(Sérandour et。,2016)。然后对测序读数进行适当的生物信息学处理,然后将羟甲基化评分赋予捕获的CpG。

[Abstract]  Chromatin Immunoprecipitation coupled either to qPCR (qChIP) or high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-Seq) has been extensively used in the last decades to identify the DNA binding sites of transcription factors or the localization of various histone marks along the genome. The ChIP experiment generally includes 7 steps: collection of biological samples (A), cross-linking proteins to DNA (B), chromatin isolation and fragmentation by sonication (C), sonication test (D), immunoprecipitation with antibodies against the protein or the histone mark of interest (E), DNA recovery (E), identification of factor-associated DNA sequences by PCR or sequencing (F). The protocol described here can readily be used for ChIP-seq and ChIP-qPCR experiments. The entire procedure, describing experimental setup ... [摘要]  与qPCR(qChIP)或高通量测序(ChIP-Seq)相结合的染色质免疫沉淀已被广泛用于识别转录因子的DNA结合位点或基因组中各种组蛋白标记的定位。 ChIP实验通常包括7个步骤:收集生物样品(A),交联蛋白质到DNA(B),染色质分离和通过超声处理分离(C),超声处理测试(D),用针对蛋白质的抗体进行免疫沉淀感兴趣的组蛋白标记(E),DNA回收(E),通过PCR或测序鉴定因子相关DNA序列(F)。这里描述的协议可以容易地用于ChIP-seq和ChIP-qPCR实验。描述在完整的果蝇组织中优化分析的实验设置条件的整个过程可以在四天内完成。

背景 尽管永生化的培养细胞广泛用于研究各种细胞类型的染色质景观,但是在生理条件下在体内探测相互作用的有价值的方法对于进行转录的时间或空间比较分析是必要的因子和组蛋白修饰图在不同阶段的果蝇发展或不同组织之间。在这里,我们提供了一个详细的ChIP协议,已被优化,以便在整个果蝇胚胎和幼虫成像光盘上工作,突出关键的实验参数。
