Hendrey J A, Dziadek M
Abstract excerpt
The Hba(th-j) deletion is found proximally on mouse chromosome 11 in a region of the genome that contains imprinted sequences important for neonatal growth regulation. This study has examined the effect of genomic imprinting on neonatal growth of offspring heterozygous for the Hba(th-j) deletion. Transmission of the deletion through both the male and female germ lines has shown that offspring heterozygous for the...
