Chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) has become a routine method for probing the 3D organization of genomes. However, when applied to bacteria and archaea, current protocols are expensive and limited in their resolution. By dissecting the different steps of published eukaryotic and prokaryotic Hi-C protocols, we have developed a cost- and time-effective approach to generate high-resolution (down to 500 bp – 1 kb) contact matrices of both bacteria and archaea genomes. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Cockram et al. (2020).
