Miri and Varmuza (2009) agreed that imprinting was (at least in mammals) largely a maternal effect and suggested that the methylation patterns in the paternal pronucleus are reset by remodelling components (for example, demethylases) entering from the oocyte cytoplasm. Crucially, these enzymes do no ...
