Expression at the imprinted dlk1-gtl2 locus is regulated by proneural genes in the developing telencephalon.
Imprinting is an epigenetic mechanism that restrains the expression of about 100 genes to one allele depending on its parental origin. Several imprinted genes are implicated in neurodevelopmental brain disorders, such as autism, Angelman, and Prader-Willi syndromes. However, how expression of these...
