Abstract excerpt

We have previously shown that, in contrast to its murine homologue, the human IGF2R gene is not imprinted. However, in a small number of individuals, partial or complete repression of the paternal allele has been observed and it has been speculated that in man, IGF2R imprinting is a polymorphic trait. We have confirmed monoallelic IGF2R expression in one fetus and investigated whether genomic imprinting was...
