The present invention relates to a method of identifying a region (one or more) of a genome of a cell to which a protein of interest binds. In the methods described herein, DNA binding protein of a cell is linked (e.g., covalently crosslinked) to genomic DNA of a cell. The genomic DNA to which the DNA binding protein is linked is removed and combined or contacted with DNA comprising a sequence complementary to genomic DNA of the cell under conditions in which hybridization between the identified genomic DNA and the sequence complementary to genomic DNA occurs. Region(s) of hybridization are region(s) of the genome of the cell to which the protein of binds. A method of identifying a set of genes where cell cycle regulator binding correlates with gene expression and of identifying genomic targets of cell cycle transcription activators in living cells is also encompassed.

La présente invention porte sur un procédé d'identification d'une région (ou de plusieurs régions) d'un génome d'une cellule à laquelle (auxquelles) est liée une protéine. Selon les procédés décrits, la protéine de liaison à l'ADN d'une cellule est liée (c'est-à-dire réticulée de manière covalente) à l'ADN génomique d'une cellule. L'ADN génomique auquel la protéine de liaison est liée est retiré et combiné, ou mis en contact avec un ADN comprenant une séquence complémentaire à l'ADN génomique de la cellule dans des conditions où se produit l'hybridation entre l'ADN génomique identifié et la séquence complémentaire à l'ADN génomique. La ou les régions d'hybridation constituent la ou les régions du génome de la cellule où se lie la protéine. L'invention concerne également un procédé d'identification d'un ensemble de gènes où la liaison régulatrice de cycle cellulaire est en corrélation avec l'expression génique, ainsi qu'un procédé d'identification de cibles génomiques d'activateurs transcriptionnels de cycle cellulaire de cellules vivantes.
