Profiling Chromatin Accessibility via ATAC-seq

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ATAC-seq was performed as described previously (44 (link)). For each cell line, 50,000 cells were harvested from 3 separate cultures and used to prepare tagmented chromatin (3 replicates of WT and 3 replicates of MGAT5 KO cell lines, 6 samples total). Quality of PCR-amplified sequencing libraries was assessed using a Tapestation 2200 instrument with high sensitivity DNA screentapes (Agilent). Libraries were sequenced as paired end reads on a single lane of an Illumina HiSeq4000 flow cell. Resulting reads were aligned to the GRCh37/hg19 reference genome using Rsubread (45 (link)), and alignments were filtered to remove low quality, duplicate, and mitochondrial reads. Peaks were called using MACS2 (46 ) on merged reads from all samples, and differential peak accessibility between cell lines was determined using edgeR (47 (link)) with a threshold false discovery rate of 5%. Transcription factor binding motifs enriched in differentially accessible peaks were identified using HOMER (48 (link)). H3K4me3 ChIP-seq data were downloaded from ENCODE1 and are available under accession ENCFF756EHF.

In collaboration with the Wales Gene Park (Cardiff University), 5 ng of total RNA was depleted of ribosomal RNA using the NEBNext® rRNA Depletion Kit (Human/Mouse/Rat), (New England BioLabs, (UK) Ltd). Ribosomal RNA depletion of each sample was assessed using the Agilent 4200 TapeStation with hsRNA ScreenTape (Agilent Technologies, Inc, UK).
The sequencing libraries were prepared using the NEB® Ultra™ II Directional RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina® (New England BioLabs, (UK) Ltd) protocol. The steps included RNA fragmentation and priming, 1 st strand cDNA synthesis, 2 nd strand cDNA synthesis, adenylation of 3' ends, adapter ligation (adapter diluted 1:199) and PCR ampli cation (16-cycles). Following the addition of the PCR enrichment master mix, a unique index primer was added to each sample. The standard fragmentation procedure of 15 min at 94°C for samples for intact RNA (>7) was reduced to 8 min at 94°C for partially degraded RNA with RIN values 2-6. Except for the replacement of RNAClean ® XP beads and SPRI select beads by AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter ® ) the manufacturer's instructions were followed. The libraries were validated using Agilent 4200 TapeStation and high sensitivity DNA ScreenTapes (Agilent Technologies, Inc, UK) to ascertain the insert size, and the Qubit® (Thermo Fisher Technologies, UK) was used to perform the uorometric quantitation.

The ChIP-seq protocol was adapted from Schmidt and colleagues (Schmidt et al., 2009 (link)) and carried out from OSCs according to Fabry and colleagues (Fabry et al., 2019 (link)) using commercially available rabbit polyclonal anti-H3K9me3 (Active Motif, cat # 39161) and rabbit polyclonal anti-H3K4me2 (Merck Millipore, cat # 07–030) antibodies. ChIP from S2 cells was carried out using the same protocol from 2 × 107 cells with a modification to the chromatin preparation procedure to sonicate chromatin for 8 cycles of 30 s on/30 s off using a Bioruptor Pico (Diagenode). Recovered DNA was quantified on an Agilent TapeStation System using a High Sensitivity DNA ScreenTape (Agilent). DNA sequencing libraries were prepared with NEBNext Ultra II DNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB; E7645) according to the manufacturer’s instructions and quantified with KAPA Library Quantification Kit for Illumina (Kapa Biosystems). OSC and S2 cell ChIP-seq libraries were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 4000 and NovaSeq 6000, respectively.

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.
