  • Put the 2 mL tube on the magnet stand and when the liquid is clear remove the supernatant.
  • Resuspend the beads in 1 mL of EDTA wash buffer (20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM Spermidine, Roche Complete Protease Inhibitor EDTA-free, 2mM EDTA).
  • Incubate 5 min at RT.
  • Place the tube on the magnet stand and when the liquid is clear remove the supernatant.
  • Resuspend the beads in 200µl of Wash Buffer (20 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 0.5 mM Spermidine, Roche Complete Protease Inhibitor EDTA-free) for each sample.
• Cell permeabilization and primary antibody binding
• • Divide nuclei suspension into separate PCR tubes, one for each antibody (200 µL per sample).
  • Add 2 µL antibody (anti-H3K36me3 antibody ABIN2668403, anti-H3K4me positive control antibody ABIN3023251, and guinea pig anti-rabbit IgG negative control antibody ABIN101961) to the respective tube, corresponding to a 1:100 dilution.
  • Incubate ON at 4 °C.
  • Place the tubes on a magnet stand until the fluid is clear. Remove the liquid carefully.

  • Add 200 µl of fresh 80% EtOH to the sample without disturbing the beads (Important!!! Do NOT resuspend the beads or remove the tubes from the magnet stand or the sample will be lost).
  • Incubate 30 sec at RT.
  • Remove the EtOH from the sample.
  • Repeat the wash with 80% EtOH.
  • Resuspend the beads in 25 µL of 10 mM Tris.

• Library preparation and sequencing
• • Prepare libraries using KAPA HyperPrep Kit using KAPA Dual-Indexed adapters according to protocol.
  • Sequence samples on an Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencer, using a NextSeq 500/550 High Output Kit v2.5 (75 Cycles), 36bp PE.
• Bioinformatics
• • Align reads the human genome (hg38) using bowtie78 with settings -X 700 -m1 -v 3. Remove duplicate reads, and sort files using samtools. Filter mapped reads for size, keeping only reads with a fragment size at or below 120 base pairs.
  • Generate bedgraph files using bedtools genomecov.
  • Call peaks using SEACR version 1.3, in relaxed mode, normalizing to the negative control.
