Placental imprinting of SLC22A3 in the IGF2R imprinted domain is conserved in therian mammals
Abstract Background The eutherian IGF2R imprinted domain is regulated by an antisense long non-coding RNA, Airn, which is expressed from a differentially methylated region (DMR) in mice. Airn silences two neighbouring genes, Solute carrier family 22 member 2 (Slc22a2) and Slc22a3, to establish the I...
