Abstract excerpt
Contiguous replicons are coordinately replicated and may be organized in temporal-spatial domains with early replication domains containing expressed genes and late ones carrying silent genes. XIST is silent on the active, early replicating X chromosome and expressed from the inactive, late replicating homolog. These circumstances potentially deviate from the aforementioned generalization and make studies of...
