  • Title: Transcriptional control: imprinting insulation.
    Author: Wolffe AP.
    Journal: Curr Biol; 2000 Jun 15; 10(12):R463-5. PubMed ID: 10873799.
    Abstract:
    Recent studies on the transcriptional regulation of two linked, imprinted genes, Igf2 and H19, have provided evidence for a novel mechanism of epigenetic control. DNA methylation controls the activity of an insulator element located between the two linked genes by regulating the binding of the zinc-finger protein CTCF.
