Figure 6.

Multiple parent-of-origin-specific CTCF binding sites are observed on the paternal allele at the Magel2/Peg12 locus. (Triangles) Paternally bound CTCF binding sites. Genes and CpG islands are indicated. This region represents a unique example in the mouse genome of CTCF bound only on the paternal allele at eight regions in close proximity. This figure was adapted from the UCSC Genome Browser.
