As such environmental effects get imprinted on our genome in the form ... DNA methylation is a biological process that can change gene expression without changing the gene itself; it is strongly ...

It implies that the abnormal expression of imprinted genes, which are usually only expressed from either the maternally or paternally inherited chromosome is at the origin of the abnormalities seen in ...

Something was affecting gene expression during development ... The imprint is heritable after fertilisation and persists into adulthood. I called it genomic imprinting, and found it was caused by a ...

In some cases, RSS links to a specific genetic imprinting disorder that affects the expression of certain genes. However, not all cases have a clearly identifiable genetic cause, making diagnosing ...
