The primate-specific microRNA gene cluster (C19MC) is imprinted in the placenta
7 Jul 2010
Abstract excerpt
Imprinted genes play crucial roles in mammalian development and disruption of their expression is associated with many human disorders including tumourigenesis; yet, the actual number of imprinted genes in the human genome remains a matter of debate. Here, we report on the unexpected finding that the chromosome 19 microRNA cluster (C19MC), the largest human microRNA gene cluster discovered so far, is regulated by...
