Difference between CTCF and Gene

CTCF vs. Gene

Transcriptional repressor CTCF also known as 11-zinc finger protein or CCCTC-binding factor is a transcription factor that in humans is encoded by the CTCF gene. In biology, a gene is a sequence of DNA or RNA that codes for a molecule that has a function.

Similarities between CTCF and Gene

CTCF and Gene have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Chromatin, Consensus sequence, Regulation of gene expression, Transcription factor.

Chromatin

Chromatin is a complex of macromolecules found in cells, consisting of DNA, protein, and RNA.

Consensus sequence

In molecular biology and bioinformatics, the consensus sequence (or canonical sequence) is the calculated order of most frequent residues, either nucleotide or amino acid, found at each position in a sequence alignment.

Regulation of gene expression

Regulation of gene expression includes a wide range of mechanisms that are used by cells to increase or decrease the production of specific gene products (protein or RNA), and is informally termed gene regulation.

Transcription factor

In molecular biology, a transcription factor (TF) (or sequence-specific DNA-binding factor) is a protein that controls the rate of transcription of genetic information from DNA to messenger RNA, by binding to a specific DNA sequence.
