I wanted to use this pipeline to analyze ultra-low-input, native ChIP-Seq samples ULI-NChIP looking at histone modifications.
Unlike regular ChIP-Seq, ULI-NChIP uses MNase for digestion (instead of sonication) and avoids cross-linking protein-DNA interactions.
Considering that the histone pipeline would expect the standard histone ChIP-Seq, would there be a problem using this pipeline?
Furthermore, MNase is known to have it's own biases and so I wonder....
Whether the normal ChIP-Seq library complexity QC parameters are still valid to exclude samples?
