Conserved, developmentally regulated mechanism couples chromosomal looping and heterochromatin barrier activity at the homeobox gene A locus
Establishment and segregation of distinct chromatin domains are essential for proper genome function. The insulator protein CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) is involved in creating b...
Folding and organization of a contiguous chromosome region according to the gene distribution pattern in primary genomic sequence
Specific mammalian genes functionally and dynamically associate together within the nucleus. Yet, how an array of many genes along the chromosome sequence can be spatially organ...
Genome-wide map of regulatory interactions in the human genome
Increasing evidence suggests that interactions between regulatory genomic elements play an important role in regulating gene expression. We generated a genome-wide interaction m...
Ubiquitous heterogeneity and asymmetry of the chromatin environment at regulatory elements
Gene regulation at functional elements (e.g., enhancers, promoters, insulators) is governed by an interplay of nucleosome remodeling, histone modifications, and transcription fa...
Global analysis of the insulator binding protein CTCF in chromatin barrier regions reveals demarcation of active and repressive domains
Insulators are DNA elements that prevent inappropriate interactions between the neighboring regions of the genome. They can be functionally classified as either enhancer blocker...
