Elements at the 5′ end of Xist harbor SPEN-independent transcriptional antiterminator activity

The Xist lncRNA requires Repeat A, a conserved RNA element located in its 5′ end, to induce gene silencing during X-chromosome inactivation. Intriguingly, Repeat A is also required for production of Xist. While silencing by Repeat A requires the protein SPEN, how Repeat A promotes Xist production re...
