Sentence examples for imprinting being from inspiring English sources

Contact early in life, in the larval stage preceding the two nymphal stages, seems crucial for familiarization, with imprinting being an important learning mechanism used (Schausberger 2004, 2007; Strodl & Schausberger 2012a, b).

In combination, these changes in epigenetic signature and gene expression in Smchd1 mutants are completely consistent with loss of imprinting resulting in biallelic expression of Ndn, Magel2, Mkrn3, and Peg12/ Frat3 but with imprinting being maintained at the other imprinted genes within the cluster (that is, Snrpn and Ube3a).

That epigenetic changes may be causally contributing to cancers is supported by the developmental loss of IGF-II imprinting being associated with the most common solid cancer in childhood, Wilms' tumours [ 125] and also with the constitutional loss of IGF-II imprinting in Beckwith Wiedemann syndrome being associated with an increased risk of cancer [ 126].

The process of imprinting is schematically illustrated in the inset.

Although imprinting is only found in seeds, imprinted genes are not necessarily only expressed in seeds.

Besides, all purely mendelian QTL (i.e. non-significant imprinting) were also found when imprinting was modelled.

The instinctive tendency to be imprinted is part of the duckling's biological heritage; while the object on which it is imprinted is a matter of experience.

The layers where the ichnites were imprinted are clayey mudstones disposed on fluvial conglomerates.

The guiding principle is that the opportunity to imprint is provided by differential methylation in the gametes, from which the selection for imprinting is made in the embryo.

The technology of molecular imprinting was employed in the synthesis of selective molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs).

They found that two types of imprinting are involved.
