DNA methylation differences between the female and male X chromosomes in human brain

2024-04-17

Abstract excerpt

The mechanisms of X chromosome inactivation suggest fundamental epigenetic differences between the female and male X chromosomes. However, DNA methylation studies often exclude the X chromosomes. In addition, many previous studies relied on techniques that examine non-randomly selected subsets of positions such as array-based methods, rather than assessing the whole X chromosome. Consequently, our understanding of...
