genomic DNA
Extraction protocol
DGRC S2 cells were grown to a density of ~5E6 cells/ml, diluted 1:2 in M3 media lacking serum, crosslinked with 1% formaldehyde for 10 minutes, then quenched with glycine at a final concentration of 125 mM. Crosslinked cells were washed once with cold PBS, resuspended in 1 ml cold Sonication buffer (0.5% SDS, 20 mM Tris pH8.0, 2 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM EGTA, 0.5 mM PMSF, protease inhibitors) per 108 cells, incubated on ice for 10 minutes, then sonicated in a Diagenode Bioruptor with 12 30-second pulses, each pulse followed by a 2.5-minute rest, to obtain fragments of 200-600 bp. Sonicated material was spun in a 4° C micro-centrifuge at maximum speed for 10 minutes, and the supernatant (ChIP-material) was stored at -80° C. For each sample, 75 µl ChIP-material was diluted into 1 ml IP buffer (0.5% Triton X-100, 2 mM EDTA, 20 mM Tris pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl, 10% glycerol), pre-cleared with Protein-A agarose for 90 minutes, immuno-precipitated overnight with a concentration of antibody titrated to maximize signal:noise ratio, and incubated for 90 minutes with Protein-A agarose beads. Beads were washed extensively, bound material was eluted with Elution Buffer (1% SDS, 0.1 M NaHCO3), crosslinks were reversed, precipitated DNA was extracted once with phenol:chloroform:isoamyl alcohol and then ethanol precipitation. Precipitated DNA from 6-10 IPs was resuspended in water and pooled. RNA was degraded by 30 minute treatment with RNAse cocktail (Ambion), and DNA further purified by QIAquick PCR purification kit (QIAGEN). Invitrogen S2 cells treated with 1 µM 20-hydroxyecdysone were grown to a density of ~2E6 cells/ml, challenged with bacteria or mock-challenged with PBS, and subjected to an identical extraction protocol.
Label
Cy5
Label protocol
25 ng immunoprecipitated or input DNA was amplified using the Sigma WGA2 Kit. Sample labeling was performed as described in the NimbleChip Array User’s Guide, except immediately following labeling samples were subjected to a second round of labeling consisting of incubation at 98° C for 10 minutes, 2 minute incubation on ice, addition of 2 µl Klenow exo- (NEB), and subsequent 2 hour incubation at 37° C.
