Detailed technical support information to support ChIP experimental success. LInk to CST's comprehensive ChIP protocol.
Our ChIP assay kits avoid the problems of traditional sonication protocols, which require subjecting chromatin to harsh, denaturing conditions. Learn more.
Chromatin immunoprecipitation, or ChIP, is a technique that uses antibodies to isolate specific DNA-binding proteins along with the bound DNA fragments from cells and tissues.
Chromatin IP (ChIP) Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) from Cell Signaling Technology, Inc.

In our experience, digesting 4x10^6 cells yields 10-20 ug of chromatin, which is why this is mentioned in our ChIP FAQ. However, as stated in the protocols for our SimpleChIP® Enzymatic Chromatin IP Kit (Magnetic Beads) #9003 and SimpleChIP® Plus Enzymatic Chromatin IP Kit (Magnetic Beads) #9005, approximately 5ug - 10ug chromatin is required for ChIP depending on your target. In our experience, for histone (PTM) ChIP, as low as 1-2 ug of chromatin DNA is required per IP. For transcription factor ChIP, a minimum of 5-8 ug chromatin DNA is required per IP. For co-factor ChIP, a minimum of 10 ug chromatin is necessary per IP. This is why all of our validated antibodies have optimal dilutions based on 10ug per IP.
Use SimpleChIP kits to perform high throughput ChIP-Sequencing and assay genome wide changes in histone modifications and transcription factor binding.
