Bulk ATAC-Seq Analysis Services

Gene regulation and chromatin structure across the genome

Bulk ATAC-seq is a versatile technique that has contributed significantly to the understanding of gene regulation and chromatin structure across the genome. SeqMatic offers cost-efficient bulk ATAC-seq analysis services for comparative studies of chromatin states between conditions; gene regulation for changing chromatin accessibility during development; and also, for identification of biomarkers and therapeutic oncology targets.

Due to the versatility of this technique, it is noteworthy to mention that the use of bulk ATAC-seq analysis services versus single cell ATAC-seq services depends on several factors, including your experimental design, the biological question you want to resolve, and your assigned budget considerations.

Workflow for Bulk ATAC-seq Analysis:

(A) Schematic of Library preparation

(B) Visual of transposition results in fragmented DNA. Adapters have to be completed with a 72°C extension step prior to amplification. Then, during PCR, additional sequence is incorporated into the adapters (including common sequencing ends and a sequencing barcode).

Bulk ATAC-seq Applications

At SeqMatic, bioinformatic analysis services of bulk ATAC-seq applications include:

  • Nucleosome mapping for identification of nucleosome positions and occupancy across the genome.
  • Transcription factor binding analysis to enable the identification of transcription factor binding sites and the study of their role in gene regulation.
  • Novel enhancer identification to study enhancer’s role in gene expression.
  • Exploration of disease-relevant regulatory mechanisms to understand the role of chromatin accessibility in complex diseases.
  • Cell type-specific regulation analysis to provide insights into cell type-specific regulatory mechanisms.
  • Evolutionary studies to understand the evolution of chromatin accessibility across different species.
  • Comparative epigenomics to compare profiles between different cell types or conditions.
  • Biomarker discovery to identify potential biomarkers associated with specific diseases or conditions

If your research goal is to get insights about cell lines or tissues composed of a single cell type, bulk ATAC-seq is absolutely a good choice. Also, it helps measure chromatin accessibility in cell populations with a high degree of homogeneity.

We can process full workflows or accept your tissue, cells, fresh/frozen nuclei for library preparation or your prepared libraries for sequencing.
