Assessment of escape from X chromosome inactivation and gene expression in single human immune cells

X-chromosomal genes escaping from X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in immune cells can contribute to sex-specific differences in immune responses. This protocol describes the specific steps to determine escape from XCI and to simultaneously quantify mRNA expression of multiple genes at the single imm...

description X-chromosomal genes escaping from X chromosome inactivation (XCI) in immune cells can contribute to sex-specific differences in immune responses. This protocol describes the specific steps to determine escape from XCI and to simultaneously quantify mRNA expression of multiple genes at the single immune cell level using a single-nucleotide polymorphism approach. The protocol furthermore allows the analysis of allele-specific expression of X-chromosomal genes. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Hagen et al. (2020).
