  • ChIP - shearing with the Covaris S2

    I've been doing some optimization work with ChIP and the Covaris S2. I figure some people would probably be interested. All in all it appears to be a great instrument. Fragmentation of the chromatin is really even without bias towards open chromatin which is important for ChIP-seq. My only complaint is that it only takes one sample at a time, so if you have a lot of samples to process it can take a good amount of time. But the reproducibility is worth the extra time.

    Anyway, it's too much to post here but it's on my blog at:
    Like just about everything my Covaris ChIP protocol seems to work much better for some epitopes than others. My guess is that this primarily has to do with the degree of crosslinking. So I decided …

    I decided to look at how crosslinking conditions affect ChIP for a histone variant I am working on. I used three crosslinking conditions and shearing times which would shear the chromatin well. Eac…



    Thanks to Hamid at Covaris for his help. Phenomenal customer support.

        Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
        by seqadmin




        The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

        Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
        by seqadmin


        Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
