Summary (written by the submitters)
Gene regulation in most eukaryotes involves two fundamental physical processes -- alterations in the packaging of the genome by nucleosomes, with active cis-regulatory elements (CREs) generally characterized by an open-chromatin configuration, and the activation of transcription. Mapping these physical properties and biochemical activities genome-wide -- through profiling chromatin accessibility and active transcription -- have now long been key tools used to understand the logic and mechanisms of transcription and its regulation.

However, the direct relationship between the two has not been accessible to measurements, leaving the exact chromatin state of actively transcribed DNA molecules unresolved. To address this question, we developed KAS-ATAC, a combination of the KAS-seq (Kethoxal-Assisted SsDNA sequencing and ATAC-seq (Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing) methods for mapping single-stranded DNA (and thus active transcription) and chromatin accessibility, respectively, which maps DNA fragments that are simultaneously accessible and containing ssDNA genome-wide. We use KAS-ATAC to evaluate levels of active transcription over different classes of regulatory elements in the human genome, to estimate the absolute levels of transcribed accessible DNA over CREs, to map the nucleosomal configurations associated with RNA polymerase activities, and to assess transcription factor association with transcribed DNA through transcription factor binding site (TFBS) footprinting.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE264534_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1103095 and SRA study SRP503274. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
24 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 24 sample titles: 24 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
