X-chromosome dosage compensation dynamics in human early embryos
2020-03-09
Abstract excerpt
In mammals, female cells are obliged to inactivate one of two X chromosomes to achieve dosage parity with the single X chromosome in male cells, and it is also thought that the single active X chromosome is increased 2-fold to achieve dosage balance with two sets of autosomes (X:A ratio = 1, or Ohno’s hypothesis). However, the ontogeny of X-chromosome inactivation and augmentation of the single active X remains un...
