Human genes escaping X-inactivation revealed by single cell expression data

BACKGROUND: In mammals, sex chromosomes pose an inherent imbalance of gene expression between sexes. In each female somatic cell, random inactivation of one of the X-chromosomes restores this balance. While most genes from the inactivated X-chromosome are silenced, 15–25% are known to escape X-inact...
