A study of the long non-coding RNA Xist using live-cell imaging
A prototype long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is the Xist RNA (X-inactive specific transcript) in X chromosome inactivation (XCI), a mammalian form of dosage compensation, in which one of the two Xs in each female cell is inactivated to balance the X-linked gene dosage between males and females.
