Identification of a Novel Imprinted Transcript in the Porcine GNAS Complex Locus Using Methylome and Transcriptome of Parthenogenetic Fetuses.

abstract：:More than fifteen genetic diseases, including Huntington's disease, myotonic dystrophy 1, fragile X syndrome and Friedreich ataxia, are caused by the aberrant expansion of a trinucleotide repeat. The mutation is unstable and further expands in specific cells or tissues with time, which can accelerate disease progressi...
