| dc.subject | X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) is a process necessary in mammals for gene dosage compensation between the sex chromosomes in males and females. This process is dependent on a key player, Xist. This factor is regulated tightly throughout the process of XCI. Despite the tight maintenance of XCI, reactivation of the X chromosome is possible and happens during development both mice and humans. In this review, we describe the process and mechanisms of X chromosome reactivation (XCR). | |
