Sequence and functional comparison in the Beckwith-Wiedemann region: implications for a novel imprinting centre and extended imprinting
1 Nov 2000
Abstract excerpt
The clustered organization of most imprinted genes in mammals suggests coordinated genetic and epigenetic control mechanisms. Comparisons between human and mouse will help in elucidating these mechanisms by identifying structural and functional similarities. Previously we reported on such a comparison in the central part of the mouse imprinting cluster on distal chromosome 7 with the homologous Beckwith-Wiedemann...
