The imprinted expression of the
IGF2
and
H19
genes is controlled by the imprinting control region 1 (ICR1) located at chromosome 11p15.5. DNA methylation defects involving ICR1 result in two growth disorders with opposite phenotypes: an overgrowth disorder, the Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (maternal ICR1 hypermethylation in 10% of BWS ca...
