Female human primordial germ cells display X-chromosome dosage compensation despite the absence of X-inactivation

X-chromosome dosage compensation in female placental mammals is achieved by X-chromosome inactivation (XCI). An exception are human pre-implantation embryos, where dosage compensation occurs by X-chromosome dampening (XCD). Here, we examined whether XCD extends to human prenatal germ cells given the...
