Monoallelic loss of the imprinted gene Grb10 promotes tumor formation in irradiated Nf1+/- mice

Imprinted genes are expressed from only one parental allele and heterozygous loss involving the expressed allele is sufficient to produce complete loss of protein expression. Genetic alterations are common in tumorigenesis but the role of imprinted genes in this process is not well understood. In ea...
