Abstract

H19 is shown by Venkatraman et al. (2013), using maternal-allele-specific deletion of the differentially methylated region, to maintain hematopoietic stem cell repopulating ability through a miR-675-Igf1r signaling circuit. This work establishes function in somatic stem cells for another member of a putative imprinted gene network that may influence organismal growth.
