The mechanism behind this phenomenon, known as genomic imprinting, is determined by DNA modifications during egg and sperm ...

You're not an equal product of both parents' genes. Genomic imprinting, a process whereby only one gene copy is expressed, not only exists but, combined with mutations, may lead to disease.

In a milestone in mammalian genetic engineering, a team of researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences succeeded in ...

Not only are alleles inherited from a mouse’s mom or dad expressed in unequal proportions in various cells in the brain and adrenal system—a phenomenon called genomic imprinting—but expressing the ...

In a groundbreaking study, scientists from China have successfully created mice with two biological fathers. Though the ...

Never has there been a more exciting time in the history of genetics and genomics research than today! Genomic technologies are advancing on a daily basis, with better, faster, and cheaper ...

Parthenogenesis, asexual reproduction, is precluded by the need for two separate genomes with individual imprinting, that is, the specific inactivation of genomic regions by epigenetic ...

They also constructed a comprehensive genomic variation map by resequencing 177 celery samples. This study was published in Plant Biotechnology Journal. Through phylogenetic, population structure ...

Articles were selected for inclusion if they reported on patients with metastatic prostate cancer who received a germline or somatic genomic test and/or made comparisons between those tests, reported ...
