Abstract excerpt
Here we used a series of CTCF mutations to explore CTCF's relationship with chromatin and its contribution to gene regulation. CTCF's impact depends on the genomic context of bound sites and the unique binding properties of WT and mutant CTCF proteins. Specifically, CTCF's signal strength is linked to changes in accessibility, and the ability to block cohesin is linked to its binding stability. Multivariate...
