ChIP-seq technique

ChIP-seq TECHNIQUE
ChIP-Seq is an emerging technique of chromatin immunoprecipitation for the research on gene regulation and epigenetic mechanism. Comparing with conventional ChIP-chip methods, the application of next generation sequencing ChIP-seq that is available for measurement of gene expression through epigenome profiling of DNA- protein interaction, histone modification and nucleosome gives higher resolution with less noise and greater coverage. One current research on gene regulation has defined that tissue-specific activity of enhancers can be accurately predicted by using ChIP-seq.
