Abstract

Protein–DNA interactions are central to many basic biological processes, including transcription regulation, DNA replication, and DNA repair. Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) is used to determine the position and strength of protein–DNA interactions in vivo. Coupling ChIP with microarrays (ChIP-chip), and more recently with deep sequencing (ChIP-seq), has allowed genome-wide profiling of DNA binding events in vivo. In this chapter we outline the steps to generate ChIP-seq libraries from bacterial samples and briefly discuss basic analysis of the data.
