Parent-of-origin dependent allelic regulation of social behaviors in mice by noncanonically imprinted monoamine synthesis genes

Monoamine neurotransmitters are central regulators of social behavior, yet it is unknown whether genomic imprinting of genes within their signaling pathways modulate these behaviors. The monoamine synthesis genes tyrosine hydroxylase (Th) and dopa decarboxylase (Ddc) exhibit tiss...
