Research Abstract |
We showed novel findings that imprint gene clusters, including the non-cording RNAs, in the Igf2-H19 domain of the chromosome 7 and the Dlk1-Dio3 domain of the chromosome 12, play a decisive role for embryogenesis and placentation. In addition, we provided comprehensive and single resolution DNA methylome data of germ cells, and also we showed particular functions of maternal genome on embryogenesis in cloned embryos and trophoblastic stem cells.
