library_construction_protocol: Tissue was flash frozen in liquid nitrogen for all experiments including ChIP-seq, RNA-seq and MethylC-seq. DNA was isolated using a Qiagen Plant DNeasy kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) following the manufacturer’s recommendations. RNA was isolated using TRIzol (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA) following the manufacturer’s instructions MethylC-seq libraries were constructed using the MethylC-seq protocol (Urich et al. 2015). CHIP-seq: Immunoprecipitated DNA was end repaired using the End-It DNA Repair Kit (Epicentre, Madison, WI) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. DNA was purified using Sera-Mag (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA) at a 1:1 DNA to beads ratio. The reaction was then incubated for 10 minutes at room temperature, placed on a magnet to immobilize the beads, and the supernatant was removed. The samples were washed two times with 500µL of 80% ethanol, air dried at 37C and then resuspended in 50ul of 10 mM Tris-Cl pH8.0. Finally, the samples were incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes, placed on the magnet, and the supernatant was transferred to a new tube, which contained reagents for “A-tailing.” A-tailing reactions were performed at 37C according to the manufacturers instructions (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA). The samples were cleaned using Sera-Mag beads as previously described. Next, adapter ligation was performed using Illumina Truseq Universal Y-adapters and T4 DNA ligase (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA) overnight at 16C. A double clean-up using the Sera-Mag beads was performed to remove any adapter-adapter dimers and the elution was used for 15 rounds of PCR. Lastly, samples were cleaned up one final time using the procedures described above.
