Genome-wide detection of DNA double-strand breaks by in-suspension BLISS
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: sBLISS (in-suspension Break Labeling In Situ and Sequencing) is a versatile and widely applicable method for identification of endogenous and induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), in any cell type that can be brought into suspension. After in situ labeling, DSB ends are linearly amplified followed by next-generation sequencing and DSB landscape analysis. Here, we present a step-by-step experimental protocol for sBLISS, followed by a basic computational analysis. The main advantages of sBLISS are (i) the suspension setup, which circumvents the need to work with delicate coverslips as in the original BLISS, (ii) the possibility for adaptation to a high-throughput robotics or single-cell workflow, and (iii) its flexibility and applicability to virtually every cell type, including patient-derived cells, organoids, and isolated nuclei. The wet-lab protocol can be completed in 1.5 weeks, and it is suitable for researchers with intermediate expertise in molecular biology and genomics. For the computational analyses, basic-to-intermediate bioinformatics expertise is required.
