Can anyone advise me on epigenomic analysis?

14 April 2024 0 7K Report

I'm new to epigenomic analysis and have confirmed the high chromatin accessibility of a gene in tissue cells via ATAC-seq. However, I'm unsure about the specific histone modification or DNA methylation underlying this result.

What experiments can I conduct to identify the cause of high chromatin accessibility (histone modification or DNA methylation)? Preferably, I'm looking for beginner-friendly methods. Any advice would be appreciated.
