DNA-Encoded Binding Affinity Shapes Robust CTCF Occupancy Across Cellular Contexts [PDF]
CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is an architectural protein that organizes 3D genome architecture by binding to tens of thousands of genomic loci in a typical human cell type.

Hypoxia-Induced CTCF Promotes EMT in Breast Cancer
Summary: Cancer cells experiencing hypoxic stress employ epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) to undergo metastasis through rewiring of the chromatin landscape, epigenetics, and importantly, gene expression.

Ctcf haploinsufficiency mediates intron retention in a tissue-specific manner
CTCF is a master regulator of gene transcription and chromatin organisation with occupancy at thousands of DNA target sites genome-wide. While CTCF is essential for cell survival, CTCF haploinsufficiency is associated with tumour development and ...

CTCF binding protein and epigenetic regulations of genome [PDF]
CTCF is a highly conserved DNA-binding protein involved in transcription regulation, chromatin insulation, genomic imprinting, X-chromosome inactivation, higher-order chromatin organization, and alternative splicing.

Loss of maternal CTCF is associated with peri-implantation lethality of Ctcf null embryos. [PDF]
CTCF is a highly conserved, multifunctional zinc finger protein involved in critical aspects of gene regulation including transcription regulation, chromatin insulation, genomic imprinting, X-chromosome inactivation, and higher order chromatin ...

The CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) protein and its modified forms regulate gene expression and genome organization. However, information on CTCF acetylation and its biological function is still lacking. Here, we show that CTCF can be acetylated at lysine 20

Spatial patterns of CTCF sites define the anatomy of TADs and their boundaries
Background Topologically associating domains (TADs) are genomic regions of self-interaction. Additionally, it is known that TAD boundaries are enriched in CTCF binding sites.

Modular insulators: genome wide search for composite CTCF/thyroid hormone receptor binding sites. [PDF]
The conserved 11 zinc-finger protein CTCF is involved in several transcriptional mechanisms, including insulation and enhancer blocking. We had previously identified two composite elements consisting of a CTCF and a TR binding site at the chicken ...

The role of CTCF in stabilizing long-range interactions between chromatin sites essential for maintaining nuclear architecture is well established. Most of these interactions involve recruitment of the cohesin complex to chromatin via CTCF.
