Funded Activity Summary

CTCF is a unique architectural protein that regulates the three-dimensional (3D) folding of the genome to switch our genes on, or off. This is important, as it affects how DNA is arranged inside the cells, which is turn assures correct gene expression patterns. Here, we will define the role of CTCF in organizing the 3D genome architecture and identify genetic and epigenetic states that control its function.
