Genotype-specific modifiers of transgene methylation and expression in the zebrafish, Danio rerio.

Abstract excerpt

Previous reports involving mammalian systems, particularly mice, have demonstrated the existence of cis- and trans-acting modifiers of transgene methylation. These modifiers are thought to be important in dominance modification, genome imprinting and cellular expression mosaicism. Their potential role in the penetrance and severity of many complex human diseases could be of even greater significance. In the...
