OpenTn5: Open-Source Resource for Robust and Scalable Tn5 Transposase Purification and Characterization [sciATAC-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Tagmentation is an efficient approach for sequencing library preparation, which combines DNA fragmentation by transposition of sequencing adapters, using the bacterial cut-and-paste transposase Tn5. Here we present an open-source protocol for the generation of multi-purpose hyperactive Tn5 transposase, including its benchmarking in CUT&Tag, bulk and single-cell ATAC-seq. The OpenTn5 protocol yields multi-milligram quantities of pG-Tn5E54K, L372P protein per liter of E. coli culture, sufficient for thousands of tagmentation reactions and the enzyme retains activity in storage for more than a year.
