DAP-Seq Service

CD BioSciences offers DAP-seq (DNA affinity purification sequencing) service to transfer in vivobinding experiments to in vitro, greatly improving the efficiency of DNA binding site discovery. Our service helps clients deeply understand the biological properties and binding site structure of transcription factors, which shows great value in researching the function and action mechanism of plant proteins.

DAP-Seq Protocol Overview

DAP-seq constructs transcription factor proteins binds to target genomic DNA, and enriches the bound fragments. Then, combined with high-throughput sequencing technology, sequence DNA products and analyze the data through bioinformatics methods to identify DNA binding sites of plant proteins from the whole genome. DAP can effectively address the limitations of ChIP technology in lacking target protein-specific antibodies and has broader application prospects.
