Abstract excerpt
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an X-linked recessive disease caused by mutations in the recently identified WAS protein gene (WASP). In some X-linked genetic disorders skewed X-inactivation has been observed in all cell populations or some specific cell lineages of female carriers. Recently, female carriers of WAS were also revealed to present skewed X-inactivation patterns at the haemopoietic stem cell level....
