When the Lyon(ized chromosome) roars: ongoing expression from an inactive X chromosome.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 5 Nov 2017

Carrel Laura, Brown Carolyn J

Abstract excerpt

A tribute to Mary Lyon was held in October 2016. Many remarked about Lyon's foresight regarding many intricacies of the X-chromosome inactivation process. One such example is that a year after her original 1961 hypothesis she proposed that genes with Y homologues should escape from X inactivation to achieve dosage compensation between males and females. Fifty-five years later we have learned many details about...
