Imprinting at the KBTBD6 locus involves species-specific maternal methylation and monoallelic expression in livestock animals

Abstract Background The primary differentially methylated regions (DMRs) which are maternally hypermethylated serve as imprinting control regions (ICRs) that drive monoallelic gene expression, and these ICRs have been investigated due to their implications in mammalian development. Although a subset...
