Abstract excerpt
Allele-specific methylation (ASM) refers to the differential DNA methylation between two alleles at a specific locus. This phenomenon can be driven by genomic imprinting (where gene expression depends on the parent of origin) or by genetic variants (that may affect DNA-protein binding), both of which play crucial roles in gene regulation and contribute to normal biological variation and disease. ASM can be...
