About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for MEG8: This gene is located in a cluster of imprinted genes on chromosome 14q32.3. It encodes a a non-protein codingtranscript that is preferentially expressed from the maternal allele in skeletal muscle, and appears to becoordinately regulated with other imprinted genes in this region.
