Abstract excerpt
Imprinted genes are expressed from only one of the parental alleles and are marked epigenetically by DNA methylation and histone modifications. Disruption of normal imprinting leads to abnormal embryogenesis, certain inherited diseases, and is associated with various cancers. In the context of screening for the gene(s) responsible for the alteration of phenotype in cyclophilin A knockdown (CypA-KD) P19 cells, we...
