Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed an array that assesses methylation levels of genes located in imprint control regions (ICRs) within the human genome.
ICRs regulate the expression of imprinted genes -- genes where only one parental copy of the gene is active, while the other copy is silenced early in development.
Imprinted genes of special interest to epidemiologists, geneticists, and toxicologists who study the connections between environmental influences and disease.
