Cumulative in-cis mutagenesis in vivo reveals various functions for CTCF sites at the mouse Hoxd cluster [cHi-C]

We used Capture Hi-C enriching the Hoxd locus and its flanking TADs to study the effects of CRISPR/Cas9-induced CTCF binding sites deletions on chromatin architecture. We analysed wildtype and homozygous mutant E9.5 trunks and E12.5 distal and proximal forelimbs.
