Abstract excerpt
Expression of the Xist gene, a key player in mammalian X inactivation, has been proposed to be controlled by the antisense Tsix transcript. Targeted deletion of the Tsix promoter encompassing the DPXas34 locus leads to nonrandom inactivation of the mutant X, but it remains unresolved whether this...
