This protocol describes an in vitro transcription assay that allows for a single round of transcription from in vitro assembled chromatin. Comparing the activity of a receptor or transcriptional coactivator in an assay that measures only a single round of transcription with the results from multiple rounds of transcription can help elucidate the mechanism of transcriptional activation by those factors. - [Read Assay:Single Round of In Vitro Transcription from Assembled Chromatin Templates Using a HeLa Cell Ex]

Protocol described here produces chromatin with regularly spaced nucleosomes having physiological nucleosome repeat lengths; something that can be difficult to achieve with purified components. In addition, chromatin assembled with the S-190 Chromatin Assembly Extract contains the ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling factors necessary for efficient transcription. - [Read Chromatin Assembly on Template DNA with Transcription Factors and Drosophila S-190 Chromatin Assembl]

Protocol describes the use of chromatin immunoprecipitation technology (ChIP) to analyze interactions of proteins or protein complexes with DNA in vivo. In this approach, the material is fixed with formaldehyde to preserve DNA-protein and protein-protein associations, the cells are lysed, and the chromatin is cut and solubilized. The chromatin suspension is immunoprecipitated with an antibody against the protein(s) of interest, and the coimmunoprecipitated DNA fragments are analyzed. - [Read Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of Protein Complexes Protocol]
Genome-wide location analysis, also known as ChIP-Chip, combines chromatin immunoprecipitation and DNA microarray analysis to identify protein-DNA interactions that occur in living cells. Protein-DNA interactions are captured in vivo by chemical crosslinking. Cell lysis, DNA fragmentation and immunoaffinity purification of the desired protein will co-purify DNA fragments that are associated with that protein. - [Read Chromatin Immunoprecipitation and Microarray-Based Analysis of Protein Location Protocol]
