Cross-species examination of X-chromosome inactivation highlights domains of escape from silencing
BACKGROUND: X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) in eutherian mammals is the epigenetic inactivation of one of the two X chromosomes in XX females in order to compensate for dosage differences with XY males. Not all genes are inactivated, and the proportion escaping from inactivation varies between human...
