Published in 2017 at "Human Genome Variation"

DOI: 10.1038/hgv.2017.17

Abstract: MKRN3, located on chromosome 15q11.2, encodes makorin ring-finger 3, which is an upstream suppressor of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Mutation of this gene induces central precocious puberty (CPP). As MKRN3 is maternally imprinted, only the paternal… read more here.
