Abstract
This protocol describes a high-throughput and multiplexed DNA fluorescence in situ hybridization method to trace chromosome conformation in Caenorhabditis elegans embryos. This approach generates single-cell and single-chromosome localization data that can be used to determine chromosome conformation and assess the heterogeneity of structures that exist in vivo. This strategy is flexible through modifications to the probe design steps to interrogate chromosome structure at the desired genomic scale (small-scale loops to whole-chromosome organization). For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Sawh et al. (2020).
