Drop-ChIP

Drop-ChIP was published in Nature Biotechnology 33, 165-1172 (2015), by Assaf Rotem, Oren Ram and Noam Shoresh in the labs of David Weitz and Bradely Bernstein. This page will only demonstrate the molecular biology of library construction. To look at the real equipment and how the experiments were carried out, see the Supplementary Information from the original publication and the Drop-ChIP webpage.

Adapter and primer sequences:

Barcoded adapters (BA). These are double stranded DNA and there are 1,152 of them. Click here to see all of them:

* It was not entirely clear what adapters were used in the protocol. These are educational guess, not confirmed!!! However, based on the sequenicng data, these are likely to be the case. See the sequence immediately after the 'grep'ed sequence, one of them (GATCGGAAGAGCACA...) that's Truseq adapters (the others are probably bacoded adapters (BA) concatemers):

Step-by-step library generation:

(1) MNase digestion to fragment DNA, end repair, and blunt ligation of BA in the droplet:


Product 1 (BA at both ends of genomic DNA, these have four possibilities based on the orientation of BAs):
