Cleavage Under Targets & Tagmentation (CUT&Tag)

High-sensitivity profiling of protein-DNA interactions and histone modifications to reveal gene regulatory and chromatin mechanisms.

CUT&Tag is a high-throughput sequencing method used to analyze genome-wide protein-DNA interactions, which is crucial for understanding the site-specific binding of transcription factors and histone modifications in epigenetic regulation. This technique utilizes a protein A-Tn5 transposase fusion enzyme to target and cleave DNA bound by specific antibodies, enabling precise tagging of genomic regions associated with the protein of interest. Consequently, CUT&Tag provides valuable insights into the functional elements of the genome by directly mapping the binding sites of chromatin-associated proteins, offering higher resolution and lower background noise compared to traditional methods like ChIP-seq.


Novogene provides robust CUT&Tag solutions to efficiently profile protein-DNA interactions across the entire genome with exceptional sensitivity and reproducibility. The precise mapping of these interactions is essential for deciphering the mechanisms of gene expression control and other biological processes governed by epigenetic regulators.

Project Workflow

The Novogene CUT&Tag service comprises four steps: Sample preparation, library preparation, sequencing, and bioinformatics analysis. The workflow requires continuous and uninterrupted experimental operation after sample thawing to preserve specific protein-DNA binding signals and avoid signal loss or background noise interference. Please contact us for more information about your CUT&Tag projects.


To guarantee the accuracy and reliability of sequencing data, Novogene audits every experimental step through strict quality control, fundamentally ensuring high-quality data output from sample processing to the final data report. This rigorous quality control system effectively reduces non-specific background signals, optimizes peak calling accuracy, and ensures the correctness, comprehensiveness, and credibility of downstream epigenetic and transcriptional regulation analysis.
