  1. 1. CTCF and Epigenetic Regulation of the H19/Igf2 Locus

    Författare :Vinod Pant; Rolf Ohlsson; Rainer Reinkawitz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Imprinting; Chromatin; H19; Igf2; CTCF; Insulator; methylation; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : An overall coordination between the expressions of genes is required for the proper development of an individual. Although most genes are expressed from both the constituent alleles of the genome, a small subset of autosomal genes are preferentially expressed from only one of the parental alleles, a phenomenon known as genomic imprinting.

  2. 2. Epigenetic Regulation and Reprogramming of the H19 Imprinting Control Region

    Författare :Piero Mariano; Rolf Ohlsson; Karl Ekwall; Uppsala universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : The development of a new individual from the fertilized oocyte can ultimately be seen as the consequence of the establishment and maintenance of specific patterns of gene expression. Although regulation of gene activity occurs at different levels, cellular specialization and differentiation are the results of developmental cues that essentially take place at the transcriptional level.

  3. 3. Epigenetic Control of Mammalian Development : Studies on an imprinting control region

    Författare :Liang Liu; Pärt Peterson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Epigenetic; Genomic imprinting; DNA methylation; Igf2; H19; Insulator; CTCF; Imprinting control region; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; zoologisk utvecklingsbiologi; Animal Development;

    Sammanfattning : A subset of autosomal genes is preferentially or exclusively expressed from one of the parental alleles. This phenomenon, termed genomic imprinting, is highlighted by the neighboring Igf2 and H19 genes, which are monoallelically expressed on opposite parental chromosomes. These features are governed by a 2. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Epigenetic Regulation of Genomic Imprinting and Higher Order Chromatin Conformation

    Författare :Gholamreza Tavoosidana; Rolf Ohlsson; Job Dekker; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Epigenetic; Imprinting; Chromatin; CTCF; H19 ICR; 4C; Utvecklingsbiologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : The genetic information encoded by the DNA sequence, can be expressed in different ways. Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon that results in monoallelic expression of imprinted genes in a parent of origin-dependent manner. Imprinted genes are frequently found in clusters and can share common regulatory elements. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Transcriptional Silencing in the Imprinted Igf2-H19 Loci: The Mystique of Epigenetics

    Författare :Vasudeva Ginjala; Andreas Paldi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Imprinting; DNA methylation; IGF2-H19; CTCF; ZFPs; PARP; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Genetics; genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Genomic imprinting marks a subset of autosomal loci expressed in parent of origin-dependent monoallelic expression in a non-Mendelian fashion. To restore totipotency and to reset the imprint according to the sex of the individual, the mark must be erased during germline development. LÄS MER
