Validation of candidate genes involved in X chromosome inactivation
One of the two female X chromosomes is silenced in mammals to compensate for X-linked gene dosage. For over half a century, this process, known as X chromosome inactivation (XCI), has been studied intensively and Xist was found to have a central role in it. Although Xist RNA is critical for establis...
