Abstract
⺠Maternal contamination exaggerates imprinted expression in placenta. ⺠The visceral yolk sac (VYS) endoderm shows widespread imprinted expression. ⺠New technique to separate VYS reveals masked endoderm imprinted expression. ⺠Expression of imprinted genes in VYS is regulated by DNA methylation. ⺠VYS is an improved model for extra-embryonic imprinted expression.
