Effects of X Chromosome Number and Parental Origin on X-Linked Gene Expression in Preimplantation Mouse Embryos1
1 Jul 2000
Abstract excerpt
Diploid androgenetic mouse embryos, possessing two sets of paternally inherited chromosomes, and control fertilized embryos were used to examine the relative effects of X chromosome number and parental chromosome origin on androgenone viability and X-linked gene expression. A significant difference in efficiency of blastocyst formation was observed between XX and XY androgenones in some experiments, but this...
