Abstract excerpt
The human paternally expressed gene 3 (PEG3) on chromosome 19q13.4 is one of the candidate tumor suppressor genes for glioma. We have previously reported that the epigenetic silencing of PEG3 expression in glioma cell lines is dependent on aberrant DNA methylation of an exonic CpG island. Here, we have identified three expressed sequence tags (ESTs), H80201, H78825 and AW197312, that exhibit paternal...
