ChIPmentation for Epigenomic Analysis in Fission Yeast.

Histone modifications and transcription factor-DNA interactions regulate vital processes such as transcription, recombination, repair, and accurate chromosome segregation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-Seq) has been instrumental in studying genome-wide distribution of DNA-bound or chromatin-associated factors and histone posttranslational modifications (PTMs). Here, we describe a ChIPmentation protocol adapted for fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe. This method merges Tn5 mediated tagmentation with existing ChIP protocols, resulting in lower sample input requirements with significant reduction in hands-on time and sample preparation costs.
