Joomyeong Kim

Joomyeong Kim is a Russell Thompson, Jr. Family Professor of Biology at Louisiana State University. His research interests include genomic imprinting and epigenetics. Dr. Kim's laboratory is mainly involved in understanding the functions and regulatory mechanisms governing genes subject to genomic imprinting.[1] Having previously characterized an imprinted domain located on proximal mouse chromosome 7/ human chromosome 19q13.4, his laboratory currently focuses on understanding regulatory mechanisms directing the mono-allelic expression of the seven imprinted genes in the cluster: Peg3, Usp29, Zfp264, APeg3 (paternally expressed) and Zim1, Zim2, Zim3 (maternally expressed).[2][3][4][5][6][7][8] As a second project direction, his lab studies the function of the dominant gene in the cluster, Peg3, as a transcriptional regulator.[9][10][11][12] Past projects in the Kim lab have included studying the epigenetic instability of imprinted genes during tumorigenesis,[13][14][15] potential roles of AEBP2 as a PRC2 targeting protein and in neural crest cell development,[16][17][18] as well as the DNA methylation of mouse and human retrotransposons.[19][20]
