Description

All the tissues, cell lines, yeast, and bacteria samples, unless differently stated, were extracted using Genomic Tip-20 kit (Qiagen) following the manufacturer's instructions. References 1.

Steps to reproduce

DNA extracts were treated with RNase A (VWR, Cat.No. E866-5ML) at 37 °C for 45 min and DNA purification was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Purified DNA was precipitated with isopropanol, washed with 70% ethanol, and resuspended in 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0. Quantification was done using a dsDNA BR Assay Kit (Qubit). The DNA sample was then digested into corresponding nucleosides using DNA Degradase Plus (Zymo Research, E2020). One µg of DNA was treated with 5 U of DNA Degradase at 37 °C for 2 h in a final volume of 25 μl and the reaction was inactivated, incubating the samples for 20 min at 70 °C as described by the manufacturer.
