We demonstrated that TAZ positively regulates Irs1 gene transcription in muscle. Therefore we designed ChIP-seq experiment to reveal detailed mechanism of regulation. To capture TAZ in chromatin preparation, we made Flag-tagged TAZ expressing and control vector transduced C2C12 cells by retroviral infection. We used FLAG-conjugated beads to capture TAZ-chromatin complexes and ChIP-seq was perforemd. Among many TAZ binding sites, we focused Irs1 regulatory region because our primary purpose was to identify TAZ binding site for the regulation of Irs1 transcription.
