Description
After isolation, 1x106 cells were fixed in 1% formaldehyde for 14 minutes and fixation was quenched with the addition of glycine to 125 mM for an additional 1 minute. Cells were washed three times with PBS supplemented with copmlete protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche, 11836145001) and 10 mM sodium butyrate (Sigma Aldrich, 303410), followed by harvesting via scraping from plates. ChIP was performed as previously described{Arrigoni, 2018 #528}, except that no barcode ligation and pooling was performed. Nuclei isolation was performed for 4.5 minutes at peak power 75 Watt, duty factor 2% and 200 cycles/burst using the Covaris E220 instrument (Covaris). Immunoprecipitation (IP) was performed using 2 µg of antibody and protein A/G Dynabeads (Thermo Scientific, 88802). For each IP, an equal amount of chromatin was used per sample. Chromatin quantification was performed by Nanodrop (Thermo Fisher Scientific). The immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified by Qubit 4 Fluorometer (Thermo Scientific) prior to library preparation. Sequencing libraries were prepared using the NEBNext Ultra library preparation kit (New England BioLab, E7645S), and then assessed for quality and quantity via the BioAnalyzer (Agilent). Generated libraries were sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq instrument (150 bp, paired-end).
