How do genomic imprinting and parent-of-origin effects influence gene expression and phenotypic outcomes, particularly in the context of imprinting disorders and epigenetic inheritance patterns, and what are the implications for reproductive medicine and assisted reproductive technologies? 

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic phenomenon where gene expression is dependent on the parent of origin This means that certain genes are expressed only from the maternal or paternal allele while th... View the full answer
