Abstract excerpt
We carried out padlock capture, a high-resolution RNA allelotyping method, to study X chromosome inactivation (XCI). We examined the gene reactivation pattern along the inactive X (Xi), after Xist (X-inactive specific transcript), a prototype long non-coding RNA essential for establishing X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in early embryos, is conditionally deleted from Xi in somatic cells (Xi∆Xist). We also...
