Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of genome sequencing, in particular to eHi-C, an efficient genome-wide chromatin conformation technology. Background technique
[0002] Three-dimensional (3D) genomics is a discipline that studies the three-dimensional spatial structure and function of the genome. Specifically, it refers to the study of genome sequence, gene structure and its regulatory elements, the three-dimensional spatial structure of genome sequence in the nucleus, and its function in biological processes such as gene transcription, replication, repair, and regulation. The related sequencing technologies of 3D genome mainly include Hi-C (High-throughput / resolution chromosome conformationcapture) developed by Job Dekker and ChIA-PET (Chromatin Interaction Analysis with Paired-End Tag Sequencing) technology developed by Professor Ruan Yijun (Li Guoliang, Ruan Yijun, 2014, Science Bulletin).
[0003] Hi-C technology is based on high-thro...
