Example sentences for: imprinting
How can you use “imprinting” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
This element, which is ~350 kb distant from Tnfrh1 , is essential in cis for the imprinting of at least 4 genes, Kcnq1 , Cdkn1c , Slc22a1l and Ipl/Tssc3 ( [ 21 22 23 ] and M. Higgins, personal communication).
These two elements control, respectively, the allele-specific expression of the H19/Igf2/Ins2 gene cluster, and the second gene cluster containing Kcnq1, the antisense transcript Kcnq1ot1, p57 Kip 2/ Cdkn1c, Slc22a1l, Ipl/Tssc3 and possibly additional genes [ 1 2 ] . There is good evidence assigning one border of the overall imprinted region to the DNA immediately downstream of H19 [ 3 ] . However, the other border, which must lie upstream of Ipl is less well-defined [ 4 ] . Here we show evidence for weak imprinting of a gene, Tnfrh1 , which is located upstream of
Thus, we demonstrated aspect (a) of the imprinting relay.
Imprinting of genes on mouse distal Chr7 is controlled by two DMRs, which act as 'imprinting centers'.
Paramutable maize alleles of b1 and pl1 are highly effective in relaying such an imprint [ 24 25 ] (also see [ 3 ] ), whereas other loci, although sensitive to imprinting, are less effective [ 26 ] or apparently ineffective [ 8 ] in relaying the imprint to secondary targets.
