Minou Bina studies genomic imprinting, a process where certain genes are switched on or off depending on which parent they came from, focusing on identifying candidate imprinted genes and the DNA regions (imprinting control regions) that regulate them in humans, mice, and cattle. This work uses computational and bioinformatic analysis of DNA sequences, including binding sites for regulatory proteins like CTCF and ZFP57, to map where these control regions are located in the genome.
