CTCFL
(details)
16234 CCCTC-binding factor (zinc finger protein)-like 140690 Q8NI51 CTCFL_HUMAN zf-C2H2 PF00096 313-336 342-364 398-421 428-451 546-566 Ctcfl 3652571 A2APF3 CTCFL_MOUSE ZNF Zinc fingers, C2H2-type Chromatin remodeling # 18765639 # DNA # # 18765639 BORIS=CTCFL acts as a scaffold upon which BAT3 and SET1A assemble and through which BAT3 and SET1A exert their effects upon chromatin structure and gene expression. In contrast to CTCF, BORIS appears to be a methylation-independent DNA-binding protein (28b) that activates, rather than inhibits, gene expression. #
