Cynomolgus-rhesus hybrid macaques serve as a platform for imprinting studies
Genomic imprinting can lead to allele-specific expression (ASE), where one allele is preferentially expressed more than the other. Perturbations in genomic imprinting or ASE genes have been widely observed across various neurological disorders, notably ...

A global disorder of imprinting in the human female germ line [PDF]
Imprinted genes are expressed differently depending on whether they are carried by a chromosome of maternal or paternal origin. Correct imprinting is established by germline-specific modifications; failure of this process underlies several inherited ...

The long non-coding RNA Kcnq1ot1 controls maternal p57 expression in muscle cells by promoting H3K27me3 accumulation to an intragenic MyoD-binding region [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The cell-cycle inhibitor p57kip2 plays a critical role in mammalian development by coordinating cell proliferation and differentiation in many cell types.

Genomic imprinting effects on complex traits in domesticated animal species
Monoallelically expressed genes that exert their phenotypic effect in a parent-of-origin specific manner are considered to be subject to genomic imprinting, the most well understood form of epigenetic regulation of gene expression in mammals.

New mutations at the imprinted Gnas cluster show gene dosage effects of Gsα in postnatal growth and implicate XLαs in bone and fat metabolism, but not in suckling [PDF]
The imprinted Gnas cluster is involved in obesity, energy metabolism, feeding behavior, and viability. Relative contribution of paternally expressed proteins XLαs, XLN1, and ALEX or a double dose of maternally expressed Gsα to phenotype has not been ...

Genomic imprinting is a phenomenon characterized by parent-of-origin-specific gene expression. While widely documented in viviparous mammals and plants, imprinting in oviparous birds remains controversial.

DNA methylation and DNA methyltransferases [PDF]
The prevailing views as to the form, function, and regulation of genomic methylation patterns have their origin many years in the past, at a time when the structure of the mammalian genome was only dimly perceived, when the number of protein-encoding ...

Genomic imprinting in Singapore
The EMBO Workshop on Genomic Imprinting took place between 21 and 24 September 2008, in Singapore, and was organized by F. Berger, M. Bartolomei and R. Feil. This painting, entitled ‘Back of Telok Ayer Street 2007’ and painted by C. Ek Kay, was the image included in the meeting poster.

Genomic imprinting is the modification of gene expression depending on whether the genetic material is inherited from the mother or the father. The article reviews the concept and its implications in various human disorders such as the chromosomal deletion syndromes, human cancers, endocrine disorders, and various other diseases which show parent-of ...
