Journal ArticleDOI

Circular chromosome conformation capture (4C) uncovers extensive networks of epigenetically regulated intra-and interchromosomal interactions

TL;DR: It is found that the direct interaction between differentially methylated regions was linked to epigenetic regulation of transcription in trans and the patterns of interactions specific to the maternal H19 imprinting control region underwent reprogramming during in vitro maturation of embryonic stem cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional association of CTCF with the insulator upstream of the H19 gene is parent of origin-specific and methylation-sensitive

TL;DR: Observations suggest that molecular mechanisms of genomic imprinting may use an unusual ability of CTCF to interact with a diverse spectrum of variant target sites, some of which include CpGs that are responsible for methylation-sensitive C TCF binding in vitro and in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation regulates CTCF-dependent chromatin insulation

TL;DR: It is suggested that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation imparts chromatin insulator properties to CTCF at both imprinted and nonimprinted loci, which has implications for the regulation of expression domains and their demise in pathological lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The nucleotides responsible for the direct physical contact between the chromatin insulator protein CTCF and the H19 imprinting control region manifest parent of origin-specific long-distance insulation and methylation-free domains

TL;DR: It is documented that point mutations of the nucleotides in physical contact with CTCF within the endogenous H19 ICR lead to loss of C TCF binding and Igf2 imprinting only when passaged through the female germline.
