Validating the involvement of AGFG1 in X chromosome inactivation through CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing

X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is a phenomenon that occurs in mammals, whereby X chromosome is silenced in female to balance the X-linked gene dosage. Although XCI and the role of non-coding RNA Xist in XCI have been intensively studied, the exact mechanism and modulators of XCI are largely unclear...
