Abstract excerpt
Three-dimensional chromatin looping interactions play an important role in constraining enhancer-promoter interactions and mediating transcriptional gene regulation. CTCF is thought to play a critical role in the formation of these loops, but the specificity of which CTCF binding events form loops and which do not is difficult to predict. Loops often have convergent CTCF binding site motif orientation, but this...
