Epigenetic-structural changes in X chromosomes promote Xic pairing during early differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells

X chromosome inactivation center (Xic) pairing occurs during the differentiation of embryonic stem (ES) cells from female mouse embryos, and is related to X chromosome inactivation, the circadian clock, intra-nucleus architecture, and metabolism. However, the mechanisms underlying the identification...
