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.
