I wanna use an antibody to determine the presence of a protein in my chip-seq experiment. Can someone help me how can do concentration optimization for antibody which I use ?
https://www.abcam.com/protocols/cross-linking-chromatin-immunoprecipitation-x-chip-protocol - This protocol may help. It is mentioned that 1-10 ug of antibody often works per 25 ug of DNA (that is measured after sonication is done). As you are willing to test the presence of a protein in the experimental lysate, western blot can be a better choice.
Titrate the amount of antibody required by performing a ChIP experiment using a range of antibody concentrations. As Avik mentioned, the amount of antibody required by ChIP generally ranges from 1 to 10 µg of antibody for every 25 µg of chromatin. https://docs.abcam.com/pdf/chromatin/A-beginners-guide-to-ChIP.pdf
