Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ChIP for histone modifications and transcription factors was performed from sorted WT and ΔIkE5Cd2 large pre-B cells as described previously (Hu et al. 2016 (link)). In addition, ChIPs for Mi-2β and CTCF were performed with antibodies ab72418 (Abcam) and 2899s (Cell Signaling), respectively. DNA recovered from ChIP was used to generate libraries for sequencing. Briefly, 2.5–40 ng of DNA was end-repaired, end-adenylated, and then ligated with Illumina TruSeq-indexed adaptors. The ligated DNA was purified with AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter) and then amplified with KAPA HiFi DNA polymerase (KAPA Biosystems) for eight to 13 cycles. After amplification, the library DNA was separated on a 2% agarose gel, and DNA fragments in the 200- to 500-bp range were purified with a gel DNA recovery kit (Zymo Research). The purified DNA was diluted to 10 nM and multiplexed for sequencing at the Bauer Center Systems Biology Core at Harvard University. Image analysis and base calling were performed using the Illumina HiSeq 2000 software. Raw sequencing data sets were uploaded to DNAnexus, a cloud-based genome informatics and data management platform.

A library was prepared for the V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene using dual-indexed primers42 (link) (Supplementary Table S6). Each reaction plate contained a positive and negative control. PCR amplicons were generated in duplicate using barcoded 319F and 806R primers with reaction mix containing: 5–50 ng DNA; 1 x HiFi Hot Start Ready Mix (KAPA Biosystems; Cape Town, South Africa); and 1 µM of each primer made up to a final volume of 25 µL with molecular-grade water. Thermocycling was performed on a Nexus Mastercycler (Eppendorf; Hamburg, Germany) using a 3 minute initial denaturation at 95 °C followed by 30 cycles at: 95 °C for 15 seconds; 55 °C for 15 seconds; 72 °C for 30 seconds, and then a final 72 °C extension for 5 mins. PCR products were cleaned and standardised using SequalPrep Normalisation kit (Invitrogen; Carlsbad, CA) and then pooled. The pooled library preparation was concentrated using DNA Clean and Concentrator-25 (Zymo Research; Irvine, CA), and residual primers removed using a Gel DNA Recovery Kit (Zymo Research; Irvine, CA). The pooled library preparation was sequenced on MiSeq platform using 600-cycle kit chemistry v3 (Illumina; San Diego, CA) by Ramaciotti Centre for Genomics (Sydney, Australia).

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.
