CTCF: an architectural protein bridging genome topology and function
The eukaryotic genome is organized in the three-dimensional nuclear space in a specific
manner that is both a cause and a consequence of its function. This organization is partly …

[PDF][PDF] The 3D genome in transcriptional regulation and pluripotency
It can be convenient to think of the genome as simply a string of nucleotides, the linear order
of which encodes an organism's genetic blueprint. However, the genome does not exist as a …

[PDF][PDF] Control of cell identity genes occurs in insulated neighborhoods in mammalian chromosomes
The pluripotent state of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) is produced by active transcription of
genes that control cell identity and repression of genes encoding lineage-specifying …

Human colorectal cancer-specific CCAT1-L lncRNA regulates long-range chromatin interactions at the MYC locus
The human 8q24 gene desert contains multiple enhancers that form tissue-specific long-
range chromatin loops with the MYC oncogene, but how chromatin looping at the MYC locus …
