General description

The Imprint Ultra Chromatin IP Kit is Sigma′s second generation chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) kit developed for maximum sensitivity and optimum next-generation sequencing results. It provides a complete solution for Chromatin Immunoprecipitation, including columns and reagents for DNA purification. The kit allows researchers to explore the genome-wide binding sites of low abundance transcription factors (TFs), as well as novel histone modifications. It is optimized for ChIP reactions with chromatin from 106 cells (up to ~50 μg DNA), and can also be scaled up (or several preparations pooled) to accommodate 108 cells for genome-wide binding studies in ChIP-chip and ChIP-Seq applications.

Application

  • Suitable for downstream applications
  • Individual target characterization to genome-wide profiling techniques
  • Characterization of signal transduction pathways
  • Verification of ChIp-chIP and ChIP-seq data

Features and Benefits

  • Use successfully CHiP′ed DNA associated with low abundance, medium, and highly expressed transcription factors, as well as histone modifications
  • Greater capacity - can be used over a wide range of cell numbers ranging from 2-10 × 106
  • Maximum sensitivity - capable of detecting low abundance transcription factors with as little as 2 × 106 cells
  • Employs DNA-Blocked "Staph-Seq" for IP (immunoprecipitation), minimizing contaminating Staph A DNA in downstream ChIP-Seq applications.

Chromatin structure plays important roles in regulating many DNA-templated processes, such as transcription, replication, and recombination. Considerable progress has recently been made in the identification of large, multisubunit complexes dedicated to these nuclear processes, all of which occur on nucleosomal
