ChIP experiments were performed as previously reported (Zong et al., 2021 (link)). Briefly, 1 g seedlings were used for nuclei isolation. Chromatin was sheared by using a Bioruptor® to an average size of about 500 bp. Sheared chromatin was further diluted in ChIP dilution buffer and incubated with 4 μg (Santa Cruz, c-myc (9E10) X antibody, sc-40X), H3K27me3 (07–449; Millipore Sigma) or GFP (ab290; Abcam) antibodies overnight at 4°C. Antibody was further captured by Dynabeads Protein G (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and then washed by low salt, high salt, LiCl, and TE buffers. The DNA-protein complex was eluted, and reverse cross-linked at 65°C overnight. DNA was purified by using QIAquick® PCR Purification Kit (Qiagen) and was used for qPCR analysis (Primers listed in Table S1).
