The human 11p15. 5 region contains several maternally and paternally imprinted genes.
Dysregulation of imprinting of some of these genes occurs in the Beckwith–Wiedemann …

Genomic imprinting refers to parent-of-origin–specific gene expression. Human
chromosome band 11p15. 5 houses a large cluster of genes that are imprinted …

A large cluster of imprinted genes is located on the mouse distal chromosome 7. This cluster
is well conserved in humans and its dysregulation results in the overgrowth-and tumour …

In human and mouse, most imprinted genes are arranged in chromosomal clusters. Their
linked organization suggests co-ordinated mechanisms controlling imprinting and gene …

Abstract Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS; OMIM# 130650) is an overgrowth
syndrome caused by different genetic or epigenetic alterations affecting imprinted regions …

Abstract Human chromosomal region 11p15. 5, which is homologous to mouse
chromosome region 7F5, is a well-known imprinted region. The CDKN1C/KCNQ1OT1 …

Abstract Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS; OMIM# 130650) is an imprinting disorder
caused by genetic or epigenetic alterations of one or both imprinting control regions on …

The imprinted gene cluster at the telomeric end of mouse chromosome 7 contains a
differentially methylated CpG island, KvDMR, that is required for the imprinting of multiple …

Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic process that results in the preferential silencing of one
of the two parental copies of a gene. Although the precise mechanisms by which genomic …

Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that leads to parent-specific differential
expression of a subset of genes. Most imprinted genes form clusters, or imprinting domains …
