Abstract excerpt
The imprinted mouse H19 gene exhibits maternal allele-specific expression and paternal allele-specific hypermethylation. We previously demonstrated that a 14-kb H19 minitransgene possessing 5' differentially methylated sequence recapitulates the endogenous H19 imprinting pattern when present as high-copy arrays. To investigate the minimal sequences that are sufficient for H19 transgene imprinting, we have tested...
