High-resolution mapping of S1- and DNase I-hypersensitive sites in chromatin.

H Weintraub
PMCID: PMC366889  PMID: 2993871

Abstract

A new and easy technique for accurately mapping DNase I- and S1 nuclease-hypersensitive sites is described. The technique is a modification of primer extension and S1 nuclease methods conventionally used to map RNA ends.
