X-Chromosome Inactivation and Autosomal Random Monoallelic Expression as “Faux Amis”

X-Chromosome Inactivation and Autosomal Random Monoallelic Expression as “Faux Amis”

X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) and random monoallelic expression of autosomal genes (RMAE) are two paradigms of gene expression regulation where, at the single cell level, genes can be expressed from either the maternal or paternal alleles. X-chromosome inactivation takes place in female marsupial...
