To prepare nuclei, around 50,000 cells at 500g for 5 min, which was followed by a wash using 50 μL of cold 1× PBS and centrifugation at 500g for 5 min. Cells were lysed using cold lysis buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, 10 mM NaCl, 3 mM MgCl2 and 0.1% IGEPAL CA-630). Immediately after lysis, nuclei were spun at 500g for 10 min using a refrigerated centrifuge.  Immediately following the nuclei prep, the pellet was resuspended in the transposase reaction mix (25 μL 2× TD buffer, 2.5 μL transposase (Illumina) and 22.5 μL nuclease-free water). The transposition reaction was carried out for 30 min at 37 °C. Directly following transposition the sample was purified using a Qiagen MinElute kit. Then, amplified library fragments were made by using 1× NEBnext PCR master mix and 1.25 μM of custom Nextera PCR primers 1 and 2, using the following PCR conditions: 72 °C for 5 min; 98 °C for 30 s; and thermocycling at 98 °C for 10 s, 63 °C for 30 s and 72 °C for 1 min. The libraries were purified using a Qiagen PCR cleanup kit yielding a final library concentration of ∼30 nM in 20 μL. Libraries were amplified for a total of 10–12 cycles.
