The imprinted gene and parent-of-origin effect database

The imprinted gene and parent-of-origin effect database (www.otago.ac.nz/IGC) consists of two sections. One section catalogues the current literature on imprinted genes in humans and animals. The second, and new, section catalogues current reports of parental origin of de novo mutations in humans alone.印记基因（imprinted gene）与亲本起源效应（parent-of-origin effect）数据库，网址为www.otago.ac.nz/IGC，共包含两个板块。其中一个板块收录了人类与动物中印记基因的现有研究文献；另一板块为新增板块，仅收录针对人类的新发突变（de novo mutation）的亲本起源相关现有报告。
