High Resolution Analysis of Spatial Interactions of Hundreds of Promoters in HeLa Cells

In this study we developed a new hybridisation-based promoter Capture-C protocol that makes use of biotinylated dsDNA probes and allows high-resolution promoter interactome description. Experiments aimed to describe spatial interactions of set of 861 promoters were performed in HeLa cells. We have found that enrichment efficiency and quality of final libraries in our study is on a par with established promoter Capture-C protocols. Meanwhile, our version of the probe preparation protocol is reasonably simple and makes Capture-C experiments more affordable and flexible.
