2.6 Mb YAC contig of the human X inactivation center region in Xq13: physical linkage of the RPS4X, PHKA1, XIST and DXS128E genes.

X chromosome inactivation is a mechanism of dosage compensation that regulates the expression of mammalian X-linked genes between XY males and XX females. This phenomenon is cis-acting, clonally heritable, and requires the presence of an X inactivation center (XIC). In our attempts to characterize t...
