Investigators at Louisiana State University, Department of Biological Sciences publish new data on genetics & genomics

New investigation results, "Genomic organization and imprinting of the Peg3 domain in bovine," are detailed in a study published in Genomics. According to recent research from the United States, "Using multiple mammalian genomic sequences, we have analyzed the evolution and imprinting of several genes located in the Peg3 domain, including Mim1 (approved name, Mimt1), Usp29, Zim3, and Zfp264. A series of comparative analyses shows that the overall genomic structure of this 500-kb imprinted domain has been well maintained throughout mammalian evolution but that several lineage-specific changes have also occurred in each species."

"In the bovine domain, Usp29 has...
