Abstract

Chromosome conformation capture techniques have revolutionized our understanding of chromatin architecture and dynamics at the genome-wide scale. In recent years, these methods have been applied to a diverse array of species, revealing fundamental principles of chromosomal organization. However, structural organization of the extrachromosomal entities, like viral genomes or plasmids, and their interactions with the host genome, remain relatively underexplored. In this work, we introduce an enhanced 4C-protocol tailored for probing plasmid DNA interactions. We design specific plasmid vector and optimize protocol to allow high detection rate of contacts between the plasmid and host DNA.
