Summary

CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor, HGNC:13723) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 16q22.1, encoding Transcriptional repressor CTCF (P49711). Chromatin binding factor that binds to DNA sequence specific sites and regulates the 3D structure of chromatin. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 99.8% of cancer cell lines) and haploinsufficient (ClinGen: sufficient evidence).

This gene is a member of the BORIS + CTCF gene family and encodes a transcriptional regulator protein with 11 highly conserved zinc finger (ZF) domains. This nuclear protein is able to use different combinations of the ZF domains to bind different DNA target sequences and proteins. Depending upon the context of the site, the protein can bind a histone acetyltransferase (HAT)-containing complex and function as a transcriptional activator or bind a histone deacetylase (HDAC)-containing complex and function as a transcriptional repressor. If the protein is bound to a transcriptional insulator element, it can block communication between enhancers and upstream promoters, thereby regulating imprinted expression. Mutations in this gene have been associated with invasive breast cancers, prostate cancers, and Wilms’ tumors. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function. Chromatin binding factor that binds to DNA sequence specific sites and regulates the 3D structure of chromatin. Binds together strands of DNA, thus forming chromatin loops, and anchors DNA to cellular structures, such as the nuclear lamina. Defines the boundaries between active and heterochromatic DNA via binding to chromatin insulators, thereby preventing interaction between promoter and nearby enhancers and silencers. Participates in the allele-specific gene expression at the imprinted IGF2/H19 gene locus. On the maternal allele, binding within the H19 imprinting control region (ICR) mediates maternally inherited higher-order chromatin conformation to restrict enhancer access to IGF2. Mediates interchromosomal association between IGF2/H19 and WSB1/NF1 and may direct distant DNA segments to a common transcription factory. Regulates asynchronous replication of IGF2/H19. Plays a critical role in gene silencing over considerable distances in the genome. Preferentially interacts with unmethylated DNA, preventing spreading of CpG methylation and maintaining methylation-free zones. Inversely, binding to target sites is prevented by CpG methylation. Plays an important role in chromatin remodeling. Can dimerize when it is bound to different DNA sequences, mediating long-range chromatin looping. Causes local loss of histone acetylation and gain of histone methylation in the beta-globin locus, without affecting transcription. When bound to chromatin, it provides an anchor point for nucleosomes positioning. Seems to be essential for homologous X-chromosome pairing. May participate with Tsix in establishing a regulatable epigenetic switch for X chromosome inactivation. May play a role in preventing the propagation of stable methylation at the escape genes from X-inactivation. Involved in sister chromatid cohesion. Associates with both centromeres and chromosomal arms during metaphase and required for cohesin localization to CTCF sites. Plays a role in the recruitment of CENPE to the pericentromeric/centromeric regions of the chromosome during mitosis. Acts as a transcriptional repressor binding to promoters of vertebrate MYC gene and BAG1 gene. Also binds to the PLK and PIM1 promoters. Acts as a transcriptional activator of APP. Regulates APOA1/C3/A4/A5 gene cluster and controls MHC class II gene expression. Plays an essential role in oocyte and preimplantation embryo development by activating or repressing transcription. Seems to act as tumor suppressor.

Subunit / interactions. Interacts with CHD8. Interacts with LLPH. Interacts with CENPE. Interacts with BRD2; promoting BRD2 recruitment to chromatin.

Subcellular location. Nucleus. Nucleoplasm. Chromosome. Centromere.

Tissue specificity. Ubiquitous. Absent in primary spermatocytes.

Post-translational modifications. Sumoylated on Lys-74 and Lys-689; sumoylation of CTCF contributes to the repressive function of CTCF on the MYC P2 promoter.

Disease relevance. Intellectual developmental disorder, autosomal dominant 21 (MRD21) [MIM:615502] A disorder characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptive behavior and manifested during the developmental period. Additional MRD21 features include short stature, microcephaly, and developmental delay. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Domain organisation. The 11 zinc fingers are highly conserved among vertebrates, exhibiting almost identical amino acid sequences. Different subsets or combination of individual zinc fingers gives the ability to CTCF to recognize multiple DNA target sites.

Miscellaneous. More than 13'00 CTCF-binding sites in potential insulators were identified in the human genome.

Similarity. Belongs to the CTCF zinc-finger protein family.

A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
