B cell-specific XIST complex enforces X-inactivation and restrains atypical B cells

2021-01-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>SUMMARY</h4> The long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) XIST establishes X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in female cells in early development and thereafter is thought to be largely dispensable. Here we show XIST is continually required in adult human B cells to silence a subset of X-linked immune genes such as TLR7 . XIST-dependent genes lack promoter DNA methylation and require continual XIST-dependent histone deacet...
