Identification of chromatin states during zebrafish gastrulation using CUT&RUN and CUT&Tag
Here we describe successful implementation of CUT&RUN for profiling protein-DNA interactions in zebrafish embryos. We apply modified a CUT&RUN method to generate high resolution maps of enrichment for H3K4me3, H3K27me3, H3K9me3, and RNA polymerase II during zebrafish gastrulation. Using this data, we identify a conserved subset of developmental genes that are enriched in both H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 during gastrulation, and we demonstrate the increased effectiveness of CUT&RUN for detecting protein enrichment at repetitive sequences with reduced mappability.  Our work demonstrates the power of combining CUT&RUN  with the strengths of the zebrafish system to better understand the changing embryonic chromatin landscape and its roles in shaping development. Overall design: CUT&RUN in 6hpf zebrafish embryos for H3K27me3, H3K4me3, H3K9me3, and pol-II. Experiments performed in duplicate with an IgG control.
