Quantitative analysis of chromosome conformation capture assays (3C-qPCR)

Abstract: Chromosome conformation capture (3C) technology is a pioneering methodology that allows in vivo genomic organization to be explored at a scale encompassing a few tens to a few hundred kilobase-pairs. Understanding the folding of the genome at this scale is particularly important in mammals where dispersed regulatory elements, like enhancers or insulators, are involved in gene regulation. 3C technology involves formaldehyde fixation of cells, followed by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based analysis of the f… Show more

“…3C assay. 3C assay was basically performed as previously described 51 . Briefly, crosslinked samples were incubated with HindIII restriction enzyme at 37°C overnight and then incubated with T4 DNA ligase (Promega) at 16°C for 4 h. Samples were diluted and immunoprecipitated with AR antibody at 4°C overnight.…”

“…For the zebrafi sh 3C experiments, which required precise quantifi cations, we followed the quantitative PCR protocol indicated in ref. 47. In all cases, product values were related to a control composed of bacterial artifi cial chromosomes (BACs) that encompass all our regions of interest (RP23-127L21, RP23-347L10, RP23-93E17, RP23-52B16 and RP23-131B17 for mouse genome; OAAA043I21 and OAAA098B15 for Xenopus ; and DKEY-103G18 and CH211-25M11 for zebrafi sh).…”

“…Interaction between the nearest neighbor fragments in the ERCC3 gene was set as 1. Cross-linking frequencies were calculated as described in Hagège et al (58). A list of primers, probe sequences, and BAC clones are provided in Table S3.…”

“…3C assays were performed on 10 7 RAG1-deficient C57BL/6 DN thymocytes or CD19 + pro-B cells using HindIII as described in Hagège et al (58). Primers and probes designed for HindIII fragments corresponding to each vantage point in the recombination center (Dβ1, Dβ2, and Eβ) were used in Taqman assays with primers specific for each Vβ gene-containing fragment.…”
