Protocol for assaying chromatin accessibility using ATAC-seq in plants.

ABSTRACT: Open or accessible regions of the genome are the primary positions of binding sites for transcription factors and chromatin regulators. Transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq) can probe chromatin accessibility in the intact nucleus. Here, we describe a protocol to generate ATAC-seq libraries from fresh Arabidopsis thaliana tissues and establish an easy-to-use bioinformatic analysis pipeline. Our method could be applied to other plants and other tissues and allows for the reliable detection of changes in chromatin accessibility throughout plant growth and development. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Wang et al. (2020).

Chromatin accessibility profiling by ATAC-seq.

Project description:The assay for transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) provides a simple and scalable way to detect the unique chromatin landscape associated with a cell type and how it may be altered by perturbation or disease. ATAC-seq requires a relatively small number of input cells and does not require a priori knowledge of the epigenetic marks or transcription factors governing the dynamics of the system. Here we describe an updated and optimized protocol for ATAC-seq, called Omni-ATAC, that is applicable across a broad range of cell and tissue types. The ATAC-seq workflow has five main steps: sample preparation, transposition, library preparation, sequencing and data analysis. This protocol details the steps to generate and sequence ATAC-seq libraries, with recommendations for sample preparation and downstream bioinformatic analysis. ATAC-seq libraries for roughly 12 samples can be generated in 10 h by someone familiar with basic molecular biology, and downstream sequencing analysis can be implemented using benchmarked pipelines by someone with basic bioinformatics skills and with access to a high-performance computing environment.
