CPT1A through succinylation regulates the CTCF/LINC01503‒91aa feedback loop to promote gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Transl Med
LINC01503 encoded a 91‐amino acid protein named 1503‒91aa, which enhanced carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1A (CPT1A) activity and regulated fatty acid oxidation (FAO) by competitively binding to malonyl‐CoA. Meanwhile, we found a positive feedback loop whereby CPT1A acts as a succinyltransferase to stabilise CTCF (a transcription factor driving ...

CTCF and CTCFL in cancer

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Genetics & Development, 2020
CTCF plays a key role in organizing chromatin into TAD structures but it can also function as a transcription factor. CTCFL (CTCF-like), the paralog of CTCF, is normally transiently expressed in pre-meiotic male germ cells together with ubiquitously expressed CTCF.

CTCF: Master Weaver of the Genome [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2009
CTCF is a highly conserved zinc finger protein implicated in diverse regulatory functions, including transcriptional activation/repression, insulation, imprinting, and X chromosome inactivation. Here we re-evaluate data supporting these roles in the context of mechanistic insights provided by recent genome-wide studies and highlight evidence for CTCF ...

CTCF: making the right connections [PDF]

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2016
The role of the zinc finger protein CTCF in organizing the genome within the nucleus is now well established. Widely separated sites on DNA, occupied by both CTCF and the cohesin complex, make physical contacts that create large loop domains. Additional contacts between loci within those domains, often also mediated by CTCF, tend to be favored over ...

CTCF: an R/bioconductor data package of human and mouse CTCF binding sites

open access: yesBioinformatics Advances, 2022
Abstract Summary CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor) is an 11-zinc-finger DNA binding protein which regulates much of the eukaryotic genome’s 3D structure and function. The diversity of CTCF binding motifs has led to a fragmented landscape of CTCF binding data.

DNA hypermethylation/boundary control loss identified in retinoblastomas associated with genetic and epigenetic inactivation of the RB1 gene promoter

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2021
DNA hypermethylation events occur frequently in human cancers, but less is known of the mechanisms leading to their initiation. Retinoblastoma, an intraocular cancer affecting young children, involves bi-allelic inactivation of the RB1 gene (RB−/-).

CTCF terminal segments are unstructured [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science, 2010
AbstractThe human CCCTC‐binding factor, CTCF, organizes and regulates transcription of the genome by colocalizing distant DNA elements on the same and even different chromosomes. This protein consists of 11 zinc fingers flanked by polypeptide segments of unknown structure and function.

Beyond the coding genome: non-coding mutations and cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2020
Latest advancements in genomics involving individuals from different races and geographical locations has led to the identification of thousands of common as well as rare genetic variants and copy number variations (CNVs). These studies have surprisingly

X-ray irradiation induces subtle changes in the genome-wide distribution of DNA hydroxymethylation with opposing trends in genic and intergenic regions

open access: yesEpigenetics, 2019
DNA hydroxymethylation has gained attention as an intermediate in the process of DNA demethylation. More recently, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine has been recognized as an independent epigenetic mark that can persist over time and that exerts influence on gene ...
