CUT&Tag assays for streamlined, low-input chromatin profiling in one tube
When you want streamlined chromatin profiling in one tube, CUT&Tag uses a protein-A-Tn5 transposase fusion that inserts sequencing adapters directly at the antibody-binding site. From antibody binding to sequencing-ready library in one tube, with very low cell-input requirements (down to single-cell).
Pick by input and species.
- Enzyme platform. pA-Tn5 standard. pAG-Tn5 covers broader antibody species range.
- Cell input. CUT&Tag works from 1,000 cells. Single-cell variants exist.
- Antibody validation. Poor antibody quality dominant failure mode. Validate with SNAP-CUTANA spike-in nucleosomes before scaling.
- Bridge antibodies. For uncommon IgG species.
- Bioinformatics. Specialised pipelines for Tn5-inserted libraries.
EpiCypher dominates with CUTANA pAG-Tn5 kits and matched antibody panels.
