Name
regulation of gene expression by genomic imprinting
Ontology

Synonyms
regulation of gene expression by DNA imprinting, regulation of gene expression by genetic imprinting
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
An epigenetic mechanism of regulation of gene expression in which epigenetic modifications (imprints) are established during gametogenesis. For a given gene to show parentally biased expression, the imprint are established exclusively in one of the two parental genomes, thus generating an asymmetry between the maternal and paternal alleles.
