The chicken HS4 insulator element does not protect the H19 ICR from differential DNA methylation in yeast artificial chromosome transgenic mouse.
Mono-allelic expression at the mouse IGF2/H19 locus is controlled by differential allelic DNA methylation of the imprinting control region (ICR). Because a randomly integrated H19 ICR fragment, when incorporated into the genome of transgenic mice (TgM), was allele-specifically methylated in somatic,...
