INTRODUCTION High-throughput whole-genome analysis has become a practical and important technique to understand nuclear processes, such as transcription, replication, and genome structure. Though microarrays have been the preferred genome-scale analysis method for over a decade, new technologies, referred to as next-generation sequencing, offer distinct advantages over microarrays in both sensitivity and scale. Several next-generation sequencing platforms are currently available, including the Genome Analyzer (Solexa/Illumina), 454 (Roche), and ABI-SOLiD (Applied Biosystems). This protocol describes sample preparation for sequencing of chromatin-immunoprecipitated DNA (ChIP-Seq) to analyze histone modification patterns using native chromatin and the Genome Analyzer. One advantage of using native chromatin as compared to cross-linked chromatin is that it provides single-nucleosome-level resolution and avoids nonspecific modification signals from different nucleosomes carried over through protein-protein interactions. The protocol includes purification of human CD4+ T cells from lymphocytes and chromatin fragmentation using micrococcal nuclease (MNase) digestion, followed by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and construction of a library for sequencing.

Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...-
