Enteric ILC3 from adult C57BL/6J mice were isolated by flow cytometry. Cells were fixed, cross-linked, lysed and chromosomal DNA-protein complex sonicated to generate DNA fragments ranging from 200-400 base pairs as previously described 2 (link). DNA-protein complexes were immunoprecipitated, using LowCell# ChIP kit (Diagenode), with 1μg of antibody against ARNTL (Abcam) and IgG isotype control (Abcam). Immunoprecipitates were uncross-linked and analysed by quantitative PCR using primer pairs flanking ARNTL putative sites (E-boxes) in the Ccr9 locus (determined by computational analysis using TFBS tools and Jaspar 2018). Results were normalized to input intensity and control IgG. Primer sequences were: A: F-CATTTCATAGCTTAGGCTGGCATGG; R-CTAGCTAACTGGTCTCAAAGTCCTC; B: F-GCCTCCCTTGTACTACCTGAAGC; R-TCCCAACACCAGGCCGAGTA; C: F-AGGGTCAATTTCTTAGGGCGACA; R-GCCAAGTGTTCGGTCCCAC; D: F-TCTGGCTTCTCACCATGACCACT; R-TCTAAGGCGTCACCACTGTTCTC, E: F-TTTGGGGAATCATCTTACAGCAGAG; R-ATTCATCCTGGCCCTTTCCTTCTTA; F: F-GCTCCACCTCATAGTTGTCTGG; R-CCATGAGCACGTGGAGAGAAAG; G: F-GGTCGAATACCGCGTGGGTT; R-CCCGGTAGAGGCTGCAAGAAA; H: F-AGGCAAATCTGGGCCTATCC; R-GGCCCAGTACAGAGGGGTCT; I: F-GGCTCAGGCTAGCAGGTCTC; R-TGTTTGGCCAGCATCCTCCA; J: F-ACTCAGAGGTGCTGTGACTCC; R-AGCTTTAGGACCACAATGGGCA.
