Abstract excerpt
Genomic imprinting and X chromosome inactivation (XCI) are two prototypical epigenetic mechanisms whereby a set of genes is expressed mono-allelically in order to fine-tune their expression levels. Defects in genomic imprinting have been observed in several neurodevelopmental disorders, in a wide range of tumours and in induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Single Nucleotide Variants (SNVs) are readily...
