  • The study also looked at the impact of paternally expressed genes: IGF2, PEG1, PEG3, DLK1, and DIO3 for transcriptomic and epigenomic alterations of the imprinted genes in fetal tissues. (genengnews.com)
  • One clone ID might be correlated to multiple accession numbers, which share the same CDS sequence. (genscript.com)
  • The molecular sequence of this clone aligns with the gene accession number as a point of reference only. (origene.com)
  • In addition, the morphogen retinoic acid, alone or in combination with dibutyryl cAMP, gives a 22-fold induction of PDGF alpha R gene promoter activity in human teratocarcinoma cells. (nih.gov)
