Although experiments have indicated that abnormal imprinting may be the cause of defective development in somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) or cloning experiments, a specific set of responsible genes has yet to be found. Consider a scenario in which a scientist, named Dr. Who, claims to have discovered a new gene, which we'll call Bigfish (Bf), that is directly correlated with
abnormal phenotypes of a SCNT clone. Design an experiment to test whether Dr. Who's new Bf gene is imprinted. Your experiment should be able to determine whether Bf is expressed on the paternal or maternal allele.
