EpiSeeker Chromatin Extraction Kit (ab117152) is a complete set of optimized buffers and reagents for isolating chromatin or DNA-protein complex from mammalian cells or tissues in a simple and rapid format. Chromatin prepared by this kit can be used in a variety of chromatin immunoprecipitation methods. It is also the recommended method for obtaining chromatin required by Abcam’s one-hour ChIP method using the EpiSeeker ChIP Kit - One Step (ab117138). The isolated chromatin can also be used in other chromatin-related applications such as in vitro protein-DNA binding assays and nuclear enzyme assays.

ChIP analysis of RNA polymerase II enriched in GAPDH and MLH1 promoters with chromatin extract prepared from formaldehyde fixed colon cancer cells (2x105) using ab117152.
-
Chromatin was extracted from 3x106 mouse neuroblastoma cells, fixed for 10min at RT in 0.1% formaldehyde. Cells were sonicated before last centrifugation, and following centrifugation, cells were treated with proteinase K & RNAse A. Chromatin yield was 4 µg chromatin/106 cells.
