摘要

Enabled by long-read sequencing technologies, particularly Single Molecule, Real-Time sequencing, N6-methyladenine (6mA) footprinting is a transformative methodology for revealing the heterogenous and dynamic distribution of nucleosomes and other DNA-binding proteins. Here, we present ipdTrimming, a novel 6mA-calling pipeline that outperforms existing tools in both computational efficiency and accuracy. Utilizing this optimized experimental and computational framework, we are able to map nucleosome positioning and transcription factor occupancy in nuclear DNA and establish high-resolution, long-range binding events in mitochondrial DNA. Our study highlights the potential of 6mA footprinting to capture coordinated nucleoprotein binding and to unravel epigenetic heterogeneity.
