Cells, 2022 X chromosome inactivation is a mammalian dosage compensation mechanism, where one of two X chromosomes is randomly inactivated in female cells. Previous studies have suggested that primed human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) maintain an eroded state of the

X chromosome control of meiotic chromosome synapsis in mouse inter-subspecific hybrids. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Hybrid sterility (HS) belongs to reproductive isolation barriers that safeguard the integrity of species in statu nascendi. Although hybrid sterility occurs almost universally among animal and plant species, most of our current knowledge comes from the ...

Deciphering the Role of the Barr Body in Malignancy: An insight into head and neck cancer
Sultan Qaboos University Medical Journal, 2018 X chromosome inactivation is the epitome of epigenetic regulation and long non-coding ribonucleic acid function. The differentiation status of cells has been ascribed to X chromosome activity, with two active X chromosomes generally only observed in ...

Global analysis of X-chromosome dosage compensation
Journal of Biology, 2006 Background Drosophila melanogaster females have two X chromosomes and two autosome sets (XX;AA), while males have a single X chromosome and two autosome sets (X;AA).

Variation of autosomes and X chromosome STR in breast cancer and gynecological cancer tissues
Open Life Sciences, 2017 This study analyses 1000 cases of patients with breast cancer and 2000 cases of patients with gynecological cancer (1000 cases of malignant tumor, 1000 cases of benign tumors), where breast cancer and malignant tumor patients comprise the observation ...

Nucleus, 2021 Mammals use X chromosome inactivation to compensate for the sex difference in numbers of X chromosomes. A relatively unexplored question is how the active X is protected from inactivation by its own XIST gene, the long non-coding RNA, which initiates ...

Escapees on the X chromosome [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 In many organisms, differentiation of the sex chromosome complement resulted in the coordinated regulation of genes on whole chromosomes to equalize gene expression between the sexes. In mammals, X inactivation evolved to restore equal expression of X-linked genes in males and females (1).

Gazi Medical JournalPericentric inversions arise from double breaks on opposite arms of the chromosome, followed by 180° rotation and reintegration of the broken segment. Carriers of an inversion are mostly phenotypically healthy.

Rlim/Rnf12, Rex1, and X Chromosome Inactivation
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019 RLIM/Rnf12 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that has originally been identified as a transcriptional cofactor associated with LIM domain transcription factors.

Elastic dosage compensation by X-chromosome upregulation
Nature Communications, 2022 The concerted dynamics of X-chromosome upregulation and X-chromosome inactivation, which collectively balance X-chromosome expression, are not well understood.
