A global disorder of imprinting in the human female germ line.

Nature - 4 Apr 2002

Judson Hannah, Hayward Bruce E, Sheridan Eamonn, Bonthron David T

Abstract excerpt

Imprinted genes are expressed differently depending on whether they are carried by a chromosome of maternal or paternal origin. Correct imprinting is established by germline-specific modifications; failure of this process underlies several inherited human syndromes. All these imprinting control defects are cis-acting, disrupting establishment or maintenance of allele-specific epigenetic modifications across one...
