Gene expression regulation by well-known non-coding RNAs by Tan, Jiazi

“…In one project, we attempted to insert a second Xist gene into the single X chromosome of male murine embryonic stem (ES) cells to cause ectopic XCI upon differentiation, leading to cell lethality as important X-linked genes were inactivated. From there, we could screen for genes important for XCI by rescuing the differentiated transgenic ES cells by gene silencing. …”
