Establishing two transgenic mouse cell lines for future studies on X chromosome inactivation : a red Xi in live cells and a silenced GFP on the Xi.
X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is a classic example of dosage compensation in the female eutherians. XCI is defined as a process in which one of the X chromosomes in a XX female cell is stochastically chosen to be inactivated. Consequently, a balance in X-linked gene dosages between female and male...
