ChIP module
Note: sonication and lysis conditions were calibrated to working with BMDCs. For optimal
ChIP in different cell types we suggest optimizing different lysis/sonication conditions.
Day 1:
Start with a 10cm petri dish, 10^7 cells in 10ml growth media per dish.
Stimulate BMDC cells.
1. Crosslink by adding 1% final formaldehyde concentration (use fresh formaldehyde ampulla
in every experiment): Put plates on the rotary shaker and start shaking slowly. Add 667ul of
16% formaldehyde per 10ml culture while shaking. Incubate for exactly 10min.
2. Add 520ul of 2.5M glycine (final concentration: 125mM) to each plate and continue shaking
for additional 5 min.
Glycine acts as a quencher. It is highly recommended to make fresh glycine every month
as the solution tends to change pH over time. At correct pH, medium color will change to
yellow.
3. Scrape cells and collect everything into 15 or 50ml tubes depending on the volume (do
everything on ice).
4. Spin at 1250 rpm for 5 min at 4C. Remove supernatant. Wash with 10ml of cold PBS and
spin again.
5. Remove supernatant. Transfer the pellet into 1.5 ml tubes and wash two more times.
At this stage crosslinked cells can be flash frozen at -80.
6. Cell lysis: Add 1ml RIPA+ protease inhibitors (PI) buffer for every 7.5x107 cells. Allow cells
to lyse for 10 min at 4C.
At this stage couple antibody to protein G magnetic beads:



Wash twice 75ul beads per sample with 300ul binding/ blocking buffer.
Incubate washed beads with the antibody (10ug for TFs antibodies, 3ul for
chromatin markers antibodies) in ~300 ul of binding/ blocking buffer, ~1hr, RT.
Wash beads with 300ul blocking/binding buffer.
7. Sonicate cells using Branson Sonifier with a cooling system according to calibrated
conditions (for BMDCs: 40% amplitude for 5.20 min: 1.3sec ON, 2sec OFF. Cooling system
should be at -4C).
1
8. After sonication spin for 10 min, max speed, at 4C. Transfer to a new 2 ml tube. Bring
volume to ~400ul lysate per IP (add RIPA+PI if necessary).
9. Take out 30ul of each sample and freeze at -20c till the next day – this will be used as
the input for each sample. Aliquot the remaining sonicated material to Protein G beads
coupled to the specific Ab. Tumble overnight at 4C.
Day 2:
10. Place the tube on the 1.5ml tubes magnet and remove supernatant. Add 180ul cold
RIPA+PI and transfer to a chilled 96 well plate.
11. Wash beads with 180ul cold RIPA buffer using a multi-channel pipette (picture #1). Do not
pipette beads, but simply move the plate on the magnet one row to the right (picture #2),
and then back to the left (picture #3). This will make the beads move from one side of the
well to the other side and back, and will result on good washing of the beads. Place plate
on the magnet for additional 30 seconds (picture #4) and aspirate supernatant (picture
#5).
12. Repeat washing with RIPA buffer five times in the same manner.
Continue washing in the same manner with additional buffers:
a) Wash twice with 180ul cold RIPA-500 wash buffer.
b) Wash twice with 180ul cold LiCl wash buffer.
c) Wash once with 180ul cold TE wash buffer.
13. After washing keep sample at RT and add 50ul of direct elution buffer. Add a sample of
WCE (from day 1 step 9) in this step for the remaining of the process: add 10ul WCE
+ 40ul direct elution buffer.
14. Add 2ul of RNase (Roche) + 3ul direct elution buffer, incubate at 37C for 30 min.
15. Add 1ul glycogen + 2.5ul Proteinase K (Invitrogen) + 1.5ul direct elution buffer. Incubate at
37C for 2hrs.
16. Reverse cross-linking: Incubate sample at 65C overnight.
After reverse cross-linking, continue to HT-ChIP-Seq library construction module, or
freeze samples at -20
.

Important comment: the first step (first SPRI cleanup) is described in details, including
pictures for clarification. All following SPRI cleanup steps should be done very similarly, except
for changes in buffers volume etc. The same protocol is used for automated liquid handling
robots like the Agilent Bravo.
1. First SPRI cleanup – use ChIP samples after reverse cross-linking. Sample volume at this
step should be 60ul.
 Add 140ul (2.3X) SPRI beads [Agencourt AmPure beads]. Carefully mix by pipetting 15
times (Pictures #1 and #2). After 15x mixing the sample should look homogenous
(picture #4). Incubate for 4 min at room temp.
 Separate supernatant from beads by placing plate on the magnet for 4 min (pictures
#4-6).
 Discard supernatant (vacuum aspiration is suggested, as shown in picture #7).
 Leave plate on magnet and wash beads twice with 100ul of 70% EtOH (picture #8) Incubate for 30 sec. without disturbing the beads, then discard supernatant.
 Move Eppendorf plate off magnet and air dry SPRI beads for 4 min, RT.
 Elute in 60ul Tris-HCl pH 8.0. Mix by pipetting 15 times and incubate for 2 min, RT.
 Place plate on magnet and incubate for 4 min.
 Transfer 20ul of supernatant for backup into a new plate.
 Continue with the remaining 40ul (including the beads) to end-repair step.
2. End Repair:
Important: Use pre-made buffer aliquots for 24 samples and discard leftover buffer after
single use avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
 Prepare mastermix in a 2 ml tube according to your sample number.
 Add 27ul to each well.
