Target Details for CTCFL

Target: CTCFL (CCCTC-Binding Factor (Zinc Finger Protein)-Like (CTCFL))

Alternative Name: BORIS (CTCFL Products)

Background: This antibody is designed, produced, and is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. BORIS (Brother of the Regulator of Imprinted Sites) also known as  CCCTC-binding factor-like protein, is  normally only expressed in the testis and expressed in a mutually exclusive manner with CTCF during male germ cell development.  However, previous studies have shown that BORIS is abnormally activated in a wide range of human cancers.  Expression of BORIS in normally BORIS-negative cells promotes cell growth that may lead to transformation.  BORIS maps to the cancer-associated amplification region thought to contain an oncogene or dominant-immortalizing gene. BORIS is a candidate protein for the epigenetic reprogramming factor acting in the male germ line.  BORIS is found in both the nucleus and cytoplasm.
