Genomic imprinting in Singapore

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2009
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.

DNA methylation and DNA methyltransferases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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].

open access: yesTanpakushitsu kakusan koso. Protein, nucleic acid, enzyme, 1997
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 ...

Parent-of-origin effects cause genetic variation in pig performance traits

open access: yesAnimal, 2010
In order to assess the relative importance of genomic imprinting for the genetic variation of traits economically relevant for pork production, a data set containing 21 209 records from Large White pigs was analysed.

The Evolutionary Advantage in Mammals of the Complementary Monoallelic Expression Mechanism of Genomic Imprinting and Its Emergence From a Defense Against the Insertion Into the Host Genome

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
In viviparous mammals, genomic imprinting regulates parent-of-origin-specific monoallelic expression of paternally and maternally expressed imprinted genes (PEGs and MEGs) in a region-specific manner.

Imprinting and its disorders in evolutionary perspective

open access: yesActa Medica Lituanica, 2014
Bacground. Genomic imprinting is one of the best-studied epigenetic phenomena involving all the main epigenetic processes. Recent investigations led to a huge expansion of knowledge in this field and changed some established paradigms regarding ...

Technical advances contribute to the study of genomic imprinting.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2019
Genomic imprinting in mammals was discovered over 30 years ago through elegant embryological and genetic experiments in mice. Imprinted genes show a monoallelic and parent of origin-specific expression pattern; the development of techniques that can ...

Zfp57 mutant ES cell lines directly derived from blastocysts

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2016
Zfp57 is a master regulator of genomic imprinting in mouse embryos. To further test its functions, we have derived multiple Zfp57 mutant ES clones directly from mouse blastocysts.

Genomic imprinting and genetic effects on muscle traits in mice

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2012
Background Genomic imprinting refers to parent-of-origin dependent gene expression caused by differential DNA methylation of the paternally and maternally derived alleles.
