â¢ IMPRINTING (noun) The noun IMPRINTING has 1 sense: 1. a learning process in early life whereby species specific patterns of behavior are established. Familiarity information: IMPRINTING used as a noun is very rare.
Genomic imprinting is an example of epigenetic inheritance in which differences in gene function depend on whether the allele was inherited from the mother or father. Many disorders appear to involve epigenetic alterations to imprinted genes. Genes involved in imprinting play important roles in both preâ and postânatal growth and neurodevelopment. Imprinting disorders include several childhood genetic disorders such as PraderâWilli, Angelman and BeckwithâWiedemann syndromes, as well as several types of cancer including Wilms tumour. Recent evidence suggests a correlation between assisted reproductive technologies (ART) and imprinting disorders, a phenomenon requiring more inâdepth studies as the prevalence of ART is increasing.
