Project description:SAMOSA is a single-molecule oligonucleosome footprinting technology, which can be employed to reveal nucleosome patterns (nucleosome positioning, nucleosome repeat length) at transcription factor binding sites and epigenomic domains.
Project description:Single Molecule Footprinting (SMF) data from Sonmezer et al., 2020. SMF data is obtained by treating isolated nuclei with methyltransferases, where binding of proteins on DNA, e.g. nucleosomes and TFs, leave behind unmethylated cytosines as footprints. Data in this experiment comprises SMF data obtained from ES cells and various derivatives of ES cells, such DNMT-null, REST-knockout ES cells, neural progenitors and ES cells treated with NRF1 sirNA.
Project description:Emerging 3D genome mapping efforts suggest complex chromosomal folding structures. However, the true multiplex nature of chromatin interactions has yet to be fully explored. Here, we describe a chromatin interaction analysis by droplet-based sequencing (ChIA-Drop). In ChIA-Drop, individual chromatin complexes are partitioned into droplets that contain a gel bead of DNA-barcoded primers, such that tethered chromatin DNA fragments are uniquely indexed and amplified for sequencing and mapping to demarcate multiplex chromatin contacts. Thus, ChIA-Drop can identify complex chromatin interactions with unprecedented single-molecule precision, which is not possible using methods that analyze pairwise contacts via proximity ligation. We demonstrate that multiplex chromatin interactions predominantly contribute to topologically associated domains with high heterogeneity, and that multivalent promoter-centered interactions provide a topological model for gene transcription.
Project description:Bait-capture based Single Molecule Footprinting (SMF) data from Sonmezer et al., 2020. SMF data is obtained by treating isolated nuclei with methyltransferases, where binding of proteins on DNA, e.g. nucleosomes and TFs, leave behind unmethylated cytosines as footprints. Data in this experiment comprises SMF data obtained from ES, DNMT-TKO, and neural progenitor (NP) cells. These data were generated by employing Agilent Sure-Select Mouse Methyl-Seq kit, enriching the sample for regulatory regions of mouse genome prior to library preparation. Thus, these data contain high coverage accessibility information at regulatory loci in different cell types.
