ATAC-Seq: Introduction, Features, Workflow, and Applications
By cleaving the open nuclear chromatin region at a specific space-time by transposase, we obtain the regulatory sequences of all active transcripts in the genome at that space-time, and then discover the key regulatory transcription factors by mining the
