Abstract
Proper gene expression involves communication between the regulatory elements and promoters of genes. Today, chromosome conformation capture (3C)-based methods efficiently probe chromosome folding in the nucleus and thus provide a molecular description of physical proximity through DNA looping between enhancer(s) and their target promoter(s). One such method, chromatin interaction analysis using paired-end-tag (ChIA-PET) sequencing is a powerful high-throughput method for detection of genome-wide chromatin interactions. Following enrichment of the chromatin complexes with a dedicated antibody, through a process of immunoprecipitation (IP), DNA fragments are end-joined with specifically designed DNA-linkers through proximity ligation. The DNA-linkers contain the binding site for the type II restriction enzyme
