title: GSM5543613: fca_thyroid_h3k27ac_rep1; Felis catus; ChIP-Seq
library_construction_protocol: Tissue samples were collected from adult male domestic shorthair cats (2 biological replicates). Tissues included: heart, liver, kidney, small intestine, testes, lung, and thyroid. No lesions were identified grossly in the collected tissues. Tissues were flash frozen within 30 minutes of euthanasia and stored at -80 C. All steps leading up to and including chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and ChIP qPCR were performed using the iDeal ChIP-seq Kit for Histones (Diagenode) per manufacturer guidelines. This included DNA sonication to 100-300 bp using a Bioruptor Pico (Diagenode) at 7 cycles of 30 seconds on and 30 seconds off. Library preparation for sequencing was performed with the NEBNext® Ultra™ II DNA Library Prep Kit and NEBNext® Multiplex Oligos for Illumina (New England Biolabs) according to manufacturer guidelines. Sequencing was performed on a NovaSeq 6000 platform (Illumina) with a single-end 100 bp format.
