CRISPR-Cas9 knockout of BAF complex subunits in an arrayed format in isogenic haploid cell lines is throughly validated at protein and transcriptional level.
Immunoprecipitation of BAF complex subunits followed by mass spectrometry (IP-MS) reveals complex composition changes upon loss of individual subunits.
siRNA screen reveals intra-complex synthetic lethality interactions.
Chromatin accessibility changes of cells knockout for each subunit of the BAF complex reveal major functional subunits.
Immunoprecipitation of key BAF complex subunits followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) reveals the breadth of complex binding to chromatin. ChIP-seq allows discovery of BAF-specific and pBAF-specific binding to chromatin. Comprehensive ChIP-seq for histone modifications reveals the chromatin context and likely functions of both complexes.
Transcriptome profiling in all knockout cells reveals downstream effects upon individual subunit loss.
We performed chromatin accessibility mapping by ATAC-seq, chromatin binding mapping by ChIP-seq and transcriptome quantification by RNA-seq on cell lines with single knockout of a BAF complex member.
The following genome browser tracks provide genome-wide maps of the effect of BAF complex mutation:
