Genomic imprinting and genetic effects on muscle traits in mice

BMC 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.

Epigenetic modifications potentially controlling the allelic expression of imprinted genes in sunflower endosperm

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon mainly occurs in endosperm of flowering plants. Genome-wide identification of imprinted genes have been completed in several dicot Cruciferous plant and monocot crops.

Sex dependent imprinting effects on complex traits in mice

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Background Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic source of variation in quantitative traits that results from monoallelic gene expression, where commonly either only the paternally- or the maternally-derived allele is expressed.

The Role of Long Non-coding RNAs in Human Imprinting Disorders: Prospective Therapeutic Targets

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Genomic imprinting is a term used for an intergenerational epigenetic inheritance and involves a subset of genes expressed in a parent-of-origin-dependent way.

Identification of a novel type of spacer element required for imprinting in fission yeast [PDF]

, 2011
Asymmetrical segregation of differentiated sister chromatids is thought to be important for cellular differentiation in higher eukaryotes. Similarly, in fission yeast, cellular differentiation involves the asymmetrical segregation of a chromosomal ...

Characterisation of marsupial PHLDA2 reveals eutherian specific acquisition of imprinting

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background Genomic imprinting causes parent-of-origin specific gene expression by differential epigenetic modifications between two parental genomes. We previously reported that there is no evidence of genomic imprinting of CDKN1C in the KCNQ1 domain in ...

Sexual imprinting in female zebra finches: changes in preferences as an effect of adult experience [PDF]

, 1996
Oetting S, Bischof H-J. Sexual imprinting in female zebra finches: changes in preferences as an effect of adult experience. Behaviour. 1996;133(5):387-397.It has been shown that sexual imprinting in male zebra finches can be seen as a two stage process ...

A catalogue of validated single nucleotide polymorphisms in bovine orthologs of mammalian imprinted genes and associations with beef production traits [PDF]

, 2010
peer-reviewedGenetic (or ‘genomic’) imprinting, a feature of approximately 100 mammalian genes, results in monoallelic expression from one of the two parentally inherited chromosomes. To date, most studies have been directed on imprinted genes in murine

A DNMT3A2-HDAC2 Complex Is Essential for Genomic Imprinting and Genome Integrity in Mouse Oocytes

Cell Reports, 2015
Maternal genomic imprints are established during oogenesis. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) 1 and 2 are required for oocyte development in mouse, but their role in genomic imprinting is unknown.

Number and mode of inheritance of QTL influencing backfat thickness on SSC2p in Sino-European pig pedigrees [PDF]

, 2011
Background In the pig, multiple QTL associated with growth and fatness traits have been mapped to chromosome 2 (SSC2) and among these, at least one shows paternal expression due to the IGF2-intron3-G3072A substitution. Previously published results on the
