Abstract:

A gene is imprinted when its expression is dependent on the sex of the parent from which it was inherited. An increasing number of studies are suggesting that imprinted genes have a major influence on medically, agriculturally and evolutionarily important traits, such as disease severity and livestock production traits. While some genes have a large effect on the traits of an individual, quantitative characters such as height are influenced by many genes and by the environment, including maternal effects. The interaction between these genes and the environment produces variation in the charact

Abstract:

Genetic information is encoded by the linear sequence of the DNA double helix, while epigenetic information is overlayed as the packaging of DNA and associated proteins into the chromatin structure. Variations in chromatin structure play a vital role in establishing and maintaining patterns of gene expression during differentiation and development of higher eukaryotes, and disruption of this epigenetic gene regulation can lead to cancer. Mammals display an epigenetic phenomenon known as genomic imprinting, which provides an ideal model system for the study of epigenetics. Genes subject to geno

Abstract:

Maintaining appropriate patterns of gene expression in the gametes and during early embryogenesis is essential for normal development. DNA methylation is an epigenetic means of regulating gene expression and is an important molecular mark regulating the sex-specific expression of genes subject to genomic imprinting. Imprinted genes are expressed from only one of two inherited chromosomes and are differentially marked during gametogenesis to allow for their parental allele specific expression. These genes affect embryo growth, placental function, behavior after birth and are implicated i

Abstract:

Genomic imprinting is responsible for monoallelic gene expression that depends on the sex of the parent from which the alleles (one active, one silent) were inherited. X-chromosome inactivation is also a form of monoallelic gene expression. One of the two X chromosomes is transcriptionally silenced in the somatic cells of females, effectively equalising gene dosage with males who have only one X chromosome that is not complemented by a gene poor Y chromosome. X chromosome inactivation is random in eutherian mammals, but imprinted in marsupials, and in the extraembryonic membranes of some place

Abstract:

Genomic imprinting is the epigenetic modification of loci, primarily by DNA methylation, which results in parent-of-origin-specific monoallelic expression of a small subset of genes. In plants, imprinting occurs during endosperm development and a balance of maternally- and paternally-expressed imprinted genes is essential for normal seed development. Dependence on DNA methylation for imprinting highlights the potential to manipulate seed development, and consequently seed size, by altering DNA methyltransferase activity.

Genomic imprinting, the parent-of-origin specific silencing of alleles, plays an important role in phenotypic plasticity and consequently evolution. The leading explanation for genomic imprinting is Haig's conflict theory, which suggests that alleles from each parent have evolved under different selectional pressures, resulting in the differential expression of patrigenes and matrigenes. Previous studies have mainly used mammals and flowering plants to test Haig’s theory. However, there is a lack of independent evidence to support the theory.

The genetic information encoded by the DNA sequence, can be expressed in different ways. Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that results in monoallelic expression of imprinted genes in a parent of origin-dependent manner. Imprinted genes are frequently found in clusters and can share common regulatory elements. Most of the imprinted genes are regulated by Imprinting Control Regions (ICRs).

Genomic imprinting, the parent-of-origin specific expression of alleles is an important area of research in evolutionary biology and human health (cancers and developmental syndromes).

Thus within different kin related individuals they are expressed unequally, each allele favouring their own inclusive fitness.

Regulation of inserted transcriptional units by epigenetic means has been reported for many years, and has been used to study characteristics of epigenetic regulation. Some of these transgenes have become regulated by genomic imprinting, and thus are expressed from only one of the two parental chromosomes and, occasionally, acquire parent-of-origin-specific epigenetic markings such as DNA methylation. These transgenes in particular have been useful in elucidating mechanisms of imprinted regulation. Here is described the first imprinted fluorescent transgene, a green fluorescent protein (GFP)

Genomic imprinting is the preferential expression of one allele over the other. It is an epigenetic phenomenon that occurs in the placentas of mammals and the endosperm of angiosperms.

It is the product of a second fertilization event, resulting in both maternal and paternal alleles. Some alleles are regulated differentially, resulting in imprinted genes.

Epigenetic differences between maternally inherited and paternally inherited chromosomes, such as CpG methylation, render the maternal and paternal genome functionally inequivalent, a phenomenon called genomic imprinting.

The dosage of imprinted gene expression is disrupted in cells with uniparental disomy (UPD), which is an unequal parental contribution to the genome.
