Promoter-specific imprinting of the human insulin-like growth factor-II gene.

Nature - 20 Oct 1994

Vu T H, Hoffman A R

Abstract excerpt

Genomic imprinting is a mechanism whereby only one of the two parental alleles is expressed. Loss or relaxation of genomic imprinting has been proposed as an epigenetic mechanism for oncogenesis in a variety of human tumours. Although the mechanism of imprinting is unknown, differential CpG methylation of the parental alleles has been implicated. The human insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF2) gene, which is...
