Genome binding/occupancy profiling by high throughput sequencing Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
Summary
This study describes the distribution and functional analysis of ATP-dependent chromatin remodelers in mouse 46C ES cells. The remodelers for which ChIP-Seq profiles were generated are Brg1, Chd1, Chd2, Chd4, Chd6, Chd8, Chd9 and Ep400. We first generated ES cell lines expressing individual remodelers fused to an affinity tag at the C-terminus, from their endogenous loci. Remodelers were then formaldehyde-crosslinked to chromatin in vivo, MNase digested to release individual nucleosomes, then immunoprecipitated sequentially with two distinct antibodies against the tag. DNA fragments immunoprecipitated with each factor were then identified by high throughput sequencing. Control experiments were realized by applying the same protocol to untagged ES cells. Pol II distribution was examined by ChIP-exo in ES cells depleted of either Ep400, Brg1 and Chd4. Chromatin access was studied by ATAC-seq in remodeler-depleted cells. Finally, nucleosomal occupancy was explored by MNase-seq.
