Several methods are available to capture enhancer-promoter interactions, but they either require large amounts of starting materials and are costly, or provide a relative low-resolution in chromatin contact maps. Here, we present nicking enzyme-assisted open chromatin interaction capture (NicE-C), a method that leverages nicking enzyme mediated open chromatin profiling and chromosome conformation capture to enable robust and cost-effective detection of open chromatin interactions at high resolution, especially enhancer-promoter interactions. Using TNF stimulation and mouse kidney aging as models, we applied NicE-C to reveal characteristics of dynamic enhancer-promoter interactions. ER -
