CTCF paper has been published on Molecular Cell, in which Wenfei is a co-first author with SUSTech as present address.

Highlights

•3e Hi-C is a robust technique to measure genome-wide chromatin interactions

•CTCF binding correlates with enhancer activity and enhancer-promoter interaction

•CTCF stabilizes enhancer-promoter interaction and maintains robust gene expression

•Deletion of CTCF binding sites increases cell-to-cell variation of gene expression
