Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that results in unequal expression of homologous maternal and paternal alleles. This process is initiated in the germline, and the parental epigenetic memories can be maintained following fertilization and induce further allele-specific transcription and chromatin modifications of single or multiple neighboring genes, known as imprinted genes.
