    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • its function is mediated by interaction with the zinc-finger protein CTCF that by inducing allele-specific higher-order chromatin conformations prevents the activation of IGF2 promoters by downstream enhancers on the maternal chromosome
