What is the role of imprinting in human genetic disorders?

Video transcript

Hello everyone and welcome to today's video. So which of the following statements about this B. W. Syndrome is going to be true. Remember that this syndrome is going to be accompanied by certain methylation of the I see ours or certain imprinting control regions. Now this methylation is going to have different effects on genes that are downstream from these I C. R. S. And these are the effects that it is going to have. So first we're going to have that the effect on the I. G F two gene is that it's going to activate, It is going to remain active while the H 19 gene is going to be silent. So that two alleles for the I G F two gene are going to be active while the H 19 a leos are going to be silent Now. Since the age 19 a leos are going to be silent. Both the maternal and the paternal chromosomes are going to be silent for this gene. It is not going to be expressed because of this. The correct answer choice here is going to be answer choice. I really hope this video helped you and I have to see you on the next one.
