Single Cell Expression Data Reveal Human Genes that Escape X-Chromosome Inactivation
2016-10-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Sex chromosomes pose an inherent genetic imbalance between genders. In mammals, one of the female’s X-chromosomes undergoes inactivation (Xi). Indirect measurements estimate that about 20% of Xi genes completely or partially escape inactivation. The identity of these escapee genes and their propensity to escape inactivation remain unsolved. A direct method for identifying escapees was applied by...
