Recent studies of genome-wide chromatin interactions have revealed that the human genomefunctions depend on its 3D organization.CTCF, an 11-zinc finger tandem protein,plays a vital role in chromatin structure and function.CTCF is universal and conserved expressedin cells and plays diverse important roles in transcriptional regulation, gene imprinting,insulation,different types of gene interactions, alternative splicing etc..
