CTCF Polyclonal Antibody

CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor) is a highly conserved zinc finger protein that has been implicated in playing a role in a wide range of regulatory functions, including transcriptional activation/repression, insulation, imprinting, and X chromosome inactivation. A general role for CTCF in the global organisation of chromatin architecture has been proposed. It has been suggested that CTCF is involved, in a heritable manner, in the interplay between DNA methylation, higher-order chromatin structure, and lineage-specific gene expression.
