我们开发了cFOOT-seq,这是一种检测跨基因组转录因子 (TF) 结合的新方法. 这种方法精确地绘制了TF占用在开放和关闭的染色质,即使有有限的细胞.
科学领域:
- 分子生物学分子生物学
- 基因组学就是基因组学.
- 表观遗传学 在表观遗传学中,表观遗传学是指表观遗传学.
背景情况:
- 基因调节取决于转录因子 (TF) 与调节性DNA元素结合.
- 同时检测大量的全基因组TF是一个重大的技术挑战.
- 了解TF结合动态对于破译基因调节至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 开发一种高分辨率的定量方法,用于全基因组TF绑定评估.
- 为了使TF足迹在开放和关闭的染色体区域.
- 为了促进TF占用动态和cis-regulatory架构的研究.
主要方法:
- 开发了cFOOT-seq,一种基于cytosine deaminase的TF足迹测定方法,使用SsdAtox.
- 将可访问的细胞因子转化为乌拉,保持基因组完整性.
- 结合cFOOT-seq与ATAC-seq用于敏感的单分子单细胞TF占用检测.
主要成果:
- 启用了TF足迹的划分和TF占用基因组范围的量化.
- 在开放和关闭的染色质中评估了TF结合,即使细胞数量很小.
- 使用FootTrack分析证明了TF绑定站点的 de novo预测和TF占用动态的跟踪.
结论:
- cFOOT-seq为调查全基因组TF占用动态提供了一个强大的方法.
- 该方法阐明了基因调节背后的 cis 调节体系结构.
- cFOOT-seq捕捉了细胞类型特定的TFs,重编程期间的TF动态,以及TF对染色体重塑剂的依赖.

Types of ChIP
ChIP can be divided into two types - X-ChIP and N-ChIP. X-ChIP involves in vivo cross-linking of histones and regulatory proteins to DNA, fragmenting the DNA by sonication, and isolating the protein-DNA...

Combinatorial Gene Control
The expression of more than 30,000 genes is controlled by approximately 2000-3000 transcription factors. This is possible because a single transcription factor can recognize more than one regulatory sequence. The specificity in gene...
