Chromatin Immunoprecipitation to Identify Target Protein Binding Sites on Genomic DNA

Published: June 29, 2023

Abstract

Source: Dong, X., et.al., Identifying Transcription Factor Olig2 Genomic Binding Sites in Acutely Purified PDGFRα+ Cells by Low-cell Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Sequencing Analysis. J. Vis. Exp. (2018)

In this video, we demonstrate the chromatin immunoprecipitation technique to identify protein binding sites on specific regions of the genomic DNA of oligodendrocyte precursor cells via the selective immunoprecipitation of protein-bound chromatin fragments. This method helps to study the interaction of several regulatory proteins, including transcription factors involved in gene regulation.

Protocol

All procedures involving animal models have been reviewed by the local institutional animal care committee and the JoVE veterinary review board. 1. Purification of PDGFRα Positive Oligodendrocyte Lineage Cells from Mouse Brain (modified from previously described immunopanning protocols) Preparation of an immunopanning plate for PDGFRα positive cell selection and 2 plates for the depletion of endothelial cells and microglia. <strong…
