She is Assyrian paternally and Armenian maternally. DIRAS3 is a paternally expressed and maternally imprinted gene located on chromosome 1 in humans. Haplogroups are groups of genetic populations that share a common ancestor, paternally or maternally. She was a first cousin maternally and a second cousin paternally. Many of these targets are genes that are expressed maternally. IGF2 gene is also maternally imprinted meaning that the mother's gene is silenced. Angiosperms, which pass on chloroplasts maternally, have many ways to prevent paternal inheritance. The extranuclear genome is only maternally inherited. Pseudouridylation has also been associated with the pathogenesis of maternally inherited diabetes and deafness (MIDD). In most multicellular organisms, mtDNA is inherited from the mother (maternally inherited). Kittens without maternally derived antibodies are especially vulnerable. Flowering plants were once thought to only inherit chloroplasts maternally. CMS is a maternally inherited trait that makes the plant produce sterile pollen. Specification of endoderm depends on rearrangement of maternally deposited determinants, leading to nuclearization of Beta-catenin. Research and physical analysis reveal that maternally derived alkaloids exist in young tadpoles.
