Constitutively bound CTCF sites maintain 3D chromatin architecture and long-range epigenetically regulated domains

The architectural protein CTCF is a mediator of chromatin conformation, but how CTCF binding to DNA is regulated remains poorly understood. Here the authors find that there is a shared subset of CTCF-bound sites resistant to protein depletion in different cell lines, which are enriched at domain bou...
