Marsupials have monoallelic MEST expression with a conserved antisense lncRNA but MEST may not be imprinted.

2023-02-17

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>The imprinted isoform of the <italic>Mest</italic>gene in mice is involved in key mammalian traits such as placental and fetal growth, maternal care and mammary gland maturation. <italic>MEST</italic> has a distinct promoter differentially methylated region (DMR) in eutherian mammals but in marsupials, while <italic>MEST</italic> was thought to be imprinted, it had no DMR. In this study...
