a new role for histone modifications in genomic imprinting

Hot off the press: a new role for histone modifications in genomic imprinting Imprinted genes are expressed from either the paternal or maternal allele. Reporting in Nature Communications, scientists led by Martin Leeb have now discovered 71 previously unrecognized imprinted genes in preimplantation blastocysts. The study found that imprinting created by differential histone marks plays […]
