Abstract excerpt
Neuronatin (Nnat) is an imprinted gene that is expressed exclusively from the paternal allele while the maternal allele is silent and methylated. The Nnat locus exhibits some unique features compared with other imprinted domains. Unlike the majority of imprinted genes, which are organised in clusters and coordinately regulated, Nnat does not appear to be closely linked to other imprinted genes. Also unusually,...
