Abstract excerpt

IPW (Imprinted gene in the Prader-Willi syndrome region) is a recently identified paternally expressed gene. Previous work has demonstrated IPW expression in the human fetus and adult, with monoallelic expression in adult lymphoblasts and fibroblasts, and in fetal tissues. To further examine the...
