UMI-4C

This variation on the 4C approach uses UMIs to derive high-complexity quantitative chromosome contact profiles with controlled signal-to-noise ratios. It is an efficient and accurate method for analyzing targeted loci. The method is paired with software to analyze the data (https://bitbucket.org/tanaylab/umi4cpackage).

Pros:
  • Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • Multiplexing allows robust comparison of contact distributions between loci and conditions
Cons:
  • None reported
