From Genomic Imprinting to Developmental Physiology: Identifying Stepping Stones.
2004-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Genomic imprinting is a process that determines differential expression of genes according to their parental origin. Most imprinted genes play roles in growth, development and tumour suppression. Angelman syndrome is one of the most studied human diseases related to a gene that is expressed on the maternal chromosome only (at least in certain brain cells). It is caused by inactivation of the UBE3A gene in the brai...
