Here, we present an instructive ChIP protocol for Arabidopsis imbibed seeds. The protocol covers all steps, from the sampling of imbibed seeds to the reverse crosslinking of immunoprecipitated protein-DNA complexes, and includes experimental tips and notes. The targeting of the protein to DNA is determined by quantitative PCR (qPCR) using reverse crosslinked DNA. The protocol can be further scaled up for ChIP-sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis. As an example of the protocol, we include a ChIP-quantitative PCR (ChIP-qPCR) analysis demonstrating the targeting of PIF1 to the ABI5 promoter.
