CTCF (CCCTF-binding factor) is an evolutionarily conserved, 11 zinc finger protein involved in a wide variety of functions [1]. CTCF is essential for viability, as deletion of the mouseCtcfgene results in early embryonic lethality [2–4]. CTCF was initially discovered as a negative regulator ...
until recently, most of the Stone Age site plans in the western Red Sea periphery have been unknown because of change in climate in addition to covering these sites with a large layer of sand. Recently,
CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor) is an evolutionarily conserved zinc finger protein involved in diverse functions ranging from negative regulation of MYC, to chromatin insulation of the beta-globin gene cluster, to imprinting of the Igf2 locus. The 11 zinc fi
2. Materials and Methods 2.1. Sample Collection A total of fifteen samples of artisanal fermented sausages, produced without starter addition, were collected at the end of production from four different MCs: two samples of Italian salami produced by two different small companies in the Marche ...
