We investigated parent-of-origin and allele-specific expression effects on obesity and hepatic gene expression in reciprocal crosses between the Berlin Fat Mouse Inbred line (BFMI) and C57Bl/6NCrl (B6N). We sequenced mRNA extracted from liver tissue of 10 M. Musculus individuals. 4 liver samples were collected from 10 week old inbred strains (1 male and 1 female Berlin Fat Mouse Inbred line (BFMI), 1 male and 1 female C57Bl/6NCrl (B6N)) and 6 liver samples collected from 10 week old F1 males using a reciprocal cross design (3 paternal BFMI (patBFMI) vs 3 maternal BFMI (matBFMI)).
