Maps of histone variant H3.V deposition in Trypanosoma brucei brucei
Chromatin immunoprecipitation of genomic loci in Trypanosoma brucei where histone variant H3.V is deposited. This was achieved by deletion of one H3.V allele and N-terminal tagging of the second H3.V allele with a Ty1 tag. During the ChIP experiment, the DNA was digested with MNase to obtain mononucleosomes. Nucleosomes containing H3.V were pulled down by using a BB2 anti-Ty1 antibody. Cross links are reversed and mononucleosomal DNA is purified and prepared for Illumina sequencing. Overall design: Mnase ChIPs were done in duplicates, input control samples were included for each ChIP sample.
