Skewed X inactivation in X-linked disorders.

Seminars in reproductive medicine - 1 Jun 2001

Van den Veyver I B

Abstract excerpt

X chromosome inactivation is a process by which the dosage of proteins transcribed from genes on the X chromosome is equalized between males (XY) and females (XX) through the silencing of most genes on one of the two X chromosomes in females. Although the choice of which of the two X's is inactivated is entirely random, not all women have a 50:50 ratio of cells with one or the other X chromosomes active. A number...
