Abstract excerpt
Genomic imprinting is a non-Mendelian form of inheritance that results in an expression difference between the two parental alleles of an autosomal locus. The study of mouse transgenes has provided us with descriptions of a variety of imprinting or parent-of-origin effects, thereby anticipating similar inheritance phenomena in non-transgenic mice. Many mouse transgenes exhibit parent-of-origin behavior only on...
