Title: "Modification of HoxD locus spatial structure by recruiting a truncated form of CTCF protein"
- Engineered a dCas9-CTCF fusion construct and targeted it to a predefined genomic locus, modulating both the epigenetic landscape and local 3D genome topology
- Publication: Ectopic recruitment of the CTCF N-terminal domain with two proximal zinc-finger domains as a tool for 3D genome engineering. Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2025. DOI: 10.3390/ijms26157446
