Identification of intergenerational epigenetic inheritance by whole genome DNA methylation analysis in trios
Abstract Genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of loci associated with common diseases and traits. However, a large fraction of heritability remains unexplained. Epigenetic modifications, such as the observed in DNA methylation have been proposed as a mechanism of intergeneration...
