A new class of human CpG Island promoters with primate-specific repeats

Abstract A subset of imprinting control regions (ICRs) in the human and mouse possess CpG islands associated with imperfect tandem repeats (TRs) that were shown to be essential for genomic imprinting through genetic studies. To identify whether this feature is also present in non-imprinted CpG islan...
