ATAC-seq Analysis

ATAC-seq (Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing) is a method for profiling the landscape of chromatin accessibility genome-wide. Developed by Buenrostro and colleagues in 2013, ATAC-seq uses hyperactive transposase to tag open, accessible chromatin regions, enabling rapid and sensitive identification of regulatory DNA elements. ATAC-seq has become a standard technique for characterizing gene regulatory landscapes, discovering cell-type-specific regulatory elements, and inferring gene regulatory networks.
