ChIP-on-chip protocol for transcription factor binding analysis

Thursday, February 15th, 2007 by biowww net

ChIP-on-chip is a genome-wide location analysis to identify protein-binding site, including promoters, enhancers, and other regulatory elements. Here is a nice ChIP-on-chip technique illustration from Keith Ching at UCSD.

Following is a protocol from nature for genome-wide transcriptional binding site analysis using ChIP-on-chip. The entire method takes 10 days to complete.
