Lsh controls silencing of the imprinted <i>Cdkn1c</i> gene
13 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
Epigenetic regulation, such as DNA methylation plays an important role in the control of imprinting. Lsh, a member of the SNF2 family of chromatin remodeling proteins, controls DNA methylation in mice. To investigate whether Lsh affects imprinting, we examined CpG methylation and allelic expression of individual genes in Lsh-deficient embryos. We report here that loss of Lsh specifically alters expression of the...
