growth/size/body
• at birth, mice with maternal transmission are ~18% growth-retarded compared to wild-type littermates; mice with paternal transmission are not different from wild-type mice
• two active maternal alleles of maternally expressed genes in the IC2 region results in prenatal growth retardation
|
cellular
• prenatal growth retardation is observed with maternal inheritance of the transgene and resulting expression of 2 copies of maternally expressed imprinting center 2 (IC2) genes (1 endogenous, 1 trangenic)
