Chromatin Immunoprecipitation and qPCR Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ChIP assays were performed with the MAGnify™ Chromatin Immunoprecipitation System (Life Technologies). Briefly, naive CD4 T cells were cultured under cTH17-skewing conditions in the presence or absence of 10 μM DMXAA for 72 h. 4.5 × 106 cells were cross-linked with 1% formaldehyde for 10 min at room temperature and quenched with 0.125 M glycine. Samples were lysed and chromatin sheared using a Bioruptor Plus (Diagenode) sonication system to obtain 200- to 500-bp fragments (14 cycles, 30″ on, 30″ off, high setting). Chromatin-protein complexes were immunoprecipitated with either 5 μg anti-Rorγt (Invitrogen) or IgG control that were pre-bound to Protein A/G Dynabeads™ (Invitrogen) overnight on a rotator at 4°C. Afterward, cross-linking was reversed, and DNA was eluted and purified according to the supplier’s instructions. Purified DNA was used for qPCR analysis with iQ™SYBR Green real-time PCR kit (Bio-Rad) using primers encompassing the Il17a CNS2 enhancer region, listed in the key resources table. Data were calculated (2−(ΔCT IP − ΔCT control)) and presented as fold enrichment over IgG control.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
