The influence of genomic imprinting on brain
... Like other mammalian genes, imprinted genes are transmitted in accordance with Mendelian Laws of Inheritance (Solter, 1988). As with unimprinted genes, pairs of alleles at imprinted genes are separated randomly into gametes during meiosis. However, the imprinted gene is altered to reflect the type o ...
