Background: As the cost of high-throughput sequencing technologies decreases, genome-wide chromatin accessibility profiling methods such as the assay of transposase-accessible chromatin using sequencing (ATAC-seq) are employed widely, with data accumulating at an unprecedented rate. However, accurate inference of protein occupancy requires higher-resolution footprinting analysis where major hurdles exist, including the sequence bias of nucleases and the short-lived chromatin binding of many transcription factors (TFs) with consequent lack of footprints. Results: Here we introduce an assay termed cross-link (XL)-DNase-seq, designed to capture chromatin interactions of dynamic TFs. Mild cross-linking improved the detection of DNase-based footprints of dynamic TFs but interfered with ATAC-based footprinting of the same TFs. Conclusions: XL-DNase-seq may help extract novel gene regulatory circuits involving previously undetectable TFs. The DNase-seq and ATAC-seq data generated in our systematic comparison of various cross-linking conditions also represent an unprecedented-scale resource derived from activated mouse macrophage-like cells which share many features of inflammatory macrophages.
