Genomic imprinting and epigenetic control of development.
Epigenetic mechanisms are extensively utilized during mammalian development. Specific patterns of gene expression are established during cell fate decisions, maintained as differentiation progresses, and often augmented as more specialized cell types are required. Much of what is known about these mechanisms comes from the study of two distinct epigenetic phenomena: genomic imprinting and X-chr...
متن کاملEpigenetic Control of the Genome—Lessons from Genomic Imprinting
Epigenetic mechanisms modulate genome function by writing, reading and erasing chromatin structural features. These have an impact on gene expression, contributing to the establishment, maintenance and dynamic changes in cellular properties in normal and abnormal situations. Great effort has recently been undertaken to catalogue the genome-wide patterns of epigenetic marks-creating reference ep...
متن کاملGenomic imprinting: employing and avoiding epigenetic processes.
Genomic imprinting refers to an epigenetic mark that distinguishes parental alleles and results in a monoallelic, parental-specific expression pattern in mammals. Few phenomena in nature depend more on epigenetic mechanisms while at the same time evading them. The alleles of imprinted genes are marked epigenetically at discrete elements termed imprinting control regions (ICRs) with their parent...
متن کاملdevelopment and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle
in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
15 صفحه اولGenomic imprinting and methylation: epigenetic canalization and conflict.
Imprinted genes have patterns of expression that depend on the parent of origin of their alleles. Establishment of imprinting at a locus requires that the two alleles be differentially marked in oogenesis and spermatogenesis, that these marks escape reprogramming after fertilization, and that they are reliably transmitted through development. Recent work on the mammalian DNA methyltransferases ...
