THS-Seq

THS-Seq

Transposome hypersensitive sites sequencing assay for highly sensitive characterization of chromatin accessibility (THS-seq). This variation on ATAC-Seq uses linear amplification of accessible DNA ends, in vitro transcription and an engineered Tn5 super-mutant.

Pros:
  • Requires very little input materials
  • Can detect small regions near distal enhancers
Cons:
  • Requires an engineered transposase
