Patent attributes
The present invention provides a novel method for preparing a sequencing library and studying molecular interactions involving a nucleic acid. In particular, the invention relates to a method for preparing a sequencing library, the method comprising the addition of an agent binding to chromatin to a sample comprising a nucleic acid; isolating chromatin bound by said agent; addition of transposase to the isolated chromatin; isolating nucleic acid from chromatin; and obtaining a sequencing library. Moreover, the present invention relates to a method for mapping of molecular interactions involving a nucleic acid, the method comprising the addition of an agent binding to chromatin to a sample comprising a nucleic acid; isolating chromatin bound by said agent; addition of transposase to the isolated chromatin; isolating nucleic acid from chromatin; amplification of nucleic acid; sequencing of amplified nucleic acid; and identifying molecular interactions.
