Here, we present selected engagement on nucleosome sequencing (SeEN-seq), a protocol designed to systematically identify potential TF-binding sites on the nucleosome. We describe steps for nucleosome library assembly, SeEN-seq assay, and cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) sample preparation. This protocol facilitates the preparation of homogeneous pioneer TF-nucleosome complexes for cryo-EM structure determination using single-particle analysis.\r\nFor complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Michael et al.1","lang":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","OA_type":"gold","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.xpro.2025.104295","open_access":"1"}],"citation":{"mla":"Kobayashi, Wataru, et al. “Protocol for Integrative Analysis of Transcription Factor-Nucleosome Interactions Using SeEN-Seq and Cryo-EM Structure Determination.” STAR Protocols, vol. 7, 104295, Elsevier, 2025, doi:10.1016/j.xpro.2025.104295.","ieee":"W.
