Journal ArticleDOI
Drosophila CTCF tandemly aligns with other insulator proteins at the borders of H3K27me3 domains
TL;DR: An important relationship between dCTCF and other Drosophila insulator proteins is revealed and it is speculated that vertebrate CTCF may also align with other nuclear proteins to accomplish similar functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insulators, long-range interactions, and genome function.
Jingping Yang,Victor G. Corces +1 more
TL;DR: An overview of new evidence that has uncovered a wide range of functions for these sequences in addition to their two classical roles is provided.
Book ChapterDOI
Chromatin Insulators: A Role in Nuclear Organization and Gene Expression
Jingping Yang,Victor G. Corces +1 more
TL;DR: Data from genome-wide localization studies indicate that insulator proteins can be present in intergenic regions as well as at the 5', introns or 3' of genes, suggesting a variety of roles for insulator loops in chromosome biology.
Journal ArticleDOI
A subset of Drosophila Myc sites remain associated with mitotic chromosomes colocalized with insulator proteins.
TL;DR: It is found that Myc is present at promoters and enhancers of D. melanogaster genes during interphase and associates preferentially with paused genes, suggesting that it may also be involved in the release of RNAPII from promoter proximal pausing in Drosophila.
Journal ArticleDOI
The BEAF-32 insulator coordinates genome organization and function during the evolution of Drosophila species
TL;DR: It is found that changes in binding of BEAF-32 to sites in the genome of different Drosophila species correlate with alterations in genome organization caused by DNA rearrangements or genome size expansion, suggesting a mechanism for the establishment of differences in transcription patterns during evolution.
