Abstract

ChIP-seq is the method of choice for profiling protein-DNA interactions, and notably for characterizing the landscape of transcription factor binding and histone modifications. This technique has been widely used to study numerous aspects of tumor biology and led to the development of several promising cancer therapies. In Ewing sarcoma research, ChIP-seq provided important insights into the mechanism of action of the major oncogenic fusion protein EWSR1-FLI1 and related epigenetic and transcriptional changes. In this chapter, we provide a detailed pipeline to analyze ChIP-seq experiments from the preprocessing of raw data to tertiary analysis of detected binding sites. We also advise on best practice to prepare tumor samples prior to sequencing.
