Demonstration of all-or-none loss of imprinting in mRNA expression in single cells
Loss of imprinting (LOI) is the reactivation of the silenced allele of an imprinted gene, leading to perturbation of monoallelic expression. We tested the hypothesis that LOI of PLAGL1, a representative maternally imprinted gene, occurs through an all-or-none process leading to a mixture of fully imprinted and nonimprinted cells. Herein using a quantitative RT-PCR-based experimental approach, w...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, mRNA expression and imprinting status of PEG3, NAP1L5 and PPP1R9A genes in pig.
Imprinted genes are expressed monoallelically depending on their parental origin, and play important roles in the regulation of fetal growth, development, and postnatal behavior. Most genes known to be imprinted have been identified and studied in the human and the mouse. However, there are only a small number of reported imprinted genes in pigs. Therefore, identification and characterization o...
متن کاملParent-of-origin effects on mRNA expression in Drosophila melanogaster not caused by genomic imprinting.
Parent-of-origin effects create differences in gene expression among genetically identical individuals. Using measurements of allele-specific expression, we demonstrate that previously reported parent-of-origin effects on standing mRNA levels in Drosophila melanogaster are not attributable to genomic imprinting. Offspring from reciprocal crosses exhibit differences in total expression without d...
متن کاملGenomic Imprinting
BACKGROUND Genomic imprinting is the inheritance out of Mendelian borders. Many of inherited diseases and human development violates Mendelian law of inheritance, this way of inheriting is studied by epigenetics. AIM The aim of this review is to analyze current opinions and options regarding to this way of inheriting. RESULTS Epigenetics shows that gene expression undergoes changes more com...
متن کاملBesides Imprinting
It is now firmly recognized that although the majority of mammalian genome is transcribed to RNA, protein-coding transcripts occupy only a minor part of mammalian transcriptome. Instead, increasing evidence suggests that the majority of mammalian RNAs is comprised noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). ncRNAs are a diverse class of RNAs with many subclasses involved in a wide variety of physiological functio...
