Transcription profiles of wild-type PAO1 and ampR mutant were compared in the presence and absence of sub-MIC b-lactam exposure by RNA-seq. ChIP-Seq analyses were performed using a 3x-V5-tagged AmpR. The functionality of the tagged AmpR in vivo was verified by determining the MIC and ChIP–qPCR studies. ChIP-Seq data was validated by performing ChIP-qPCR for selected targets using the V5-tagged AmpR strain.
ChIP assay conditions
For ChIP-Seq studies, the 3x-V5-tagged AmpR containing strain was grown and exposed to sub-MIC b-lactam stress.
ChIP notes
Protein–DNA interactions were then cross-linked in vivo with formaldehyde (final concentration of 1%) at room temperature for 20 min and quenched for 15 min with 0.25 M glycine. After three washes with 1× PBS, the cells were resuspended in 1 ml lysis buffer (10 mM Tris pH 8.0, 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM EDTA, 0.5 mM EGTA, 0.1% deoxycholic acid and 0.5% N-laurylsarcosine) containing a protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche). After chilling on ice, the cells were sonicated to shear the DNA to a size range of 0.5–1 kb. A 50 -µl aliquot of the supernatant was stored as the input DNA and the rest was immunoprecipitated using DynaBeads Protein G (Life Technologies), which was previously equilibrated and bound with anti-V5 monoclonal antibody (Sigma) as per manufacturer instructions. After immunoprecipitation overnight, the beads were washed five times with RIPA buffer (50 mM HEPES pH 7.5, 500 mM LiCl, 1 mM EDTA, 1% NP40, 0.7% deoxycholic acid, 50 mM NaCl in 1× TE). The beads were resuspended in 100 µl elution buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM EDTA, 1% SDS) at 65°C for 30 min, centrifuged to remove residual beads and incubated at 65°C overnight to reverse the cross-link. TE buffer was then added (100 µl) and the samples were treated with RNase (37°C for 2 h). The immunoprecipitated proteins were removed with proteinase K (55°C for 2 h), and the DNA was cleaned using the Qiagen Mini Reaction Cleanup kit. RNase and proteinase K treatment was also performed for the input DNA. DNA concentrations were determined using Quant-iT PicoGreen dsDNA Kit (Life Technologies). Before proceeding further, AmpR occupancy of the ampC promoter was determined using qPCR as described previously (21). The DNA samples were then poly-A-tailed, blocked with biotinylated ddATP, purified and processed on the Helicos sequencer as described in the RNA-Seq section.
Regulated genes for each binding site are displayed below. Gene regulation diagrams
show binding sites, positively-regulated genes,
negatively-regulated genes,
both positively and negatively regulated
genes, genes with unspecified type of regulation.
For each indvidual site, experimental techniques used to determine the site are also given.
ChIP-chip (and to a lesser degree ChIP-Seq) results are often validated with ChIP-PCR, in which a PCR with specific primers is performed on the pulled-down DNA. As in the case of RNASeq, there are many variations of these main techniques.
ChIP-Seq is equivalent to ChIP-chip down to the last step. In ChIP-Seq, immunoprecipiated DNA fragments are prepared for sequencing and funneled into a massively parallel sequencer that produces short reads. Even though the sonication step is the same as in ChIP-chip, ChIP-Seq will generate multiple short-reads within any given 500 bp region, thereby pinning down the location of TFBS to within 50-100 bp. A similar result can be obtained with ChIP-chip using high-density tiling-arrays. The downside of ChIP-Seq is that sensitivity is proportional to cost, as sensitivity increases with the number of (expensive) parallel sequencing runs. To control for biases, ChIP-seq experiments often use the "input" as a control. This is DNA sequence resulting from the same pipeline as the ChIP-seq experiment, but omitting the immunoprecipitation step. It therefore should have the same accessibility and sequencing biases as the experiment data.
Quantitative PCR (or quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction) is a modification of the conventional PCR reaction used to amplify and simultaneously quantify a targeted DNA molecule. In its more standard incarnation, a inactive fluorescent dye is added to the PCR mix. This dye is activated upon binding double-stranded DNA; as the PCR iterates, there is more and more dsDNA and therefore more fluorescence intensity.
In RNA-seq, RNA is extracted from the cell at a given time and reverse transcribed to obtain cDNA. This cDNA is then sequenced. This provides a snapshot of the "transcriptome" of an organism at a given time.

A similar result can be obtained with ChIP-chip using high-density tiling-arrays. The downside of ChIP-Seq is that sensitivity is proportional to cost, as sensitivity increases with the number of (expensive) parallel sequencing runs. To control for biases, ChIP-seq experiments often use the "input" as a control. This is DNA sequence resulting from the same pipeline as the ChIP-seq experiment, but omitting the immunoprecipitation step. It therefore should have the same accessibility and sequencing biases as the experiment data.
Quantitative PCR (or quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction) is a modification of the conventional PCR reaction used to amplify and simultaneously quantify a targeted DNA molecule. In its more standard incarnation, a inactive fluorescent dye is added to the PCR mix. This dye is activated upon binding double-stranded DNA; as the PCR iterates, there is more and more dsDNA and therefore more fluorescence intensity.
In RNA-seq, RNA is extracted from the cell at a given time and reverse transcribed to obtain cDNA. This cDNA is then sequenced. This provides a snapshot of the "transcriptome" of an organism at a given time.
ChIP-chip (and to a lesser degree ChIP-Seq) results are often validated with ChIP-PCR, in which a PCR with specific primers is performed on the pulled-down DNA. As in the case of RNASeq, there are many variations of these main techniques.
ChIP-Seq is equivalent to ChIP-chip down to the last step. In ChIP-Seq, immunoprecipiated DNA fragments are prepared for sequencing and funneled into a massively parallel sequencer that produces short reads. Even though the sonication step is the same as in ChIP-chip, ChIP-Seq will generate multiple short-reads within any given 500 bp region, thereby pinning down the location of TFBS to within 50-100 bp.
