Provided herein is a method for analyzing polynucleotides such as genomic DNA. In certain embodiments, the method comprises: (a) treating chromatin isolated from a population of cells with an insertional enzyme complex to produce tagged fragments of genomic DNA; (b) sequencing a portion of the tagged fragments to produce a plurality of sequence reads; and (c) making an epigenetic map of a region of the genome of the cells by mapping information obtained from the sequence reads to the region. A kit for performing the method is also provided.

High-fidelity, high-throughput nucleic acid sequencing enables healthcare practitioners and patients to gain insight into genetic variants and potential health risks. However, previous methods of nucleic acid sequencing often introduces sequencing errors (for example, mutations that arise during the preparation of a nucleic acid library, during amplification, or sequencing). Provided herein are sequencing adapters comprising a nondegenerate or variable length molecular barcode and compositions comprising a plurality of sequencing adapters, which can be useful for sequencing nucleic acids. Further provided are methods of using the sequencing adapters, including methods of sequencing nucleic acids, methods of identifying an error in a nucleic acid sequence, and methods of determining the number of nucleic acid molecules in a library.
