X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) is an epigenetic phenomenon observed in female mammals cells to ensure transcriptional dosage compensation of X-linked genes between males (XY) and females (XX). Most processes and steps involved in XCI in mice are well studied, however, in humans our knowledge is still very limited, especially during early embryo development. Advances in single-cell whole …
Epigenetic phenomena as genomic imprinting and X chromosome inactivation (XCI) have been widely studied in mice. While most of the processes and steps involved in XCI in mice are well studied, in humans our knowledge is still very limited, specially during early embryo development.Advances in single-cell whole transcriptome high throughput sequencing techniques (RNA-Seq) bring a new era t…
In mammals, X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is the transcriptional silencing of all but one X present in female normal somatic cells. This process ensures dosage compensation for X-linked genes among females (XX) and males (XY).There are two XCI patterns: random, where in each cell the Xi (inactive X) is chosen by chance; or imprinted, where the X chromosome activity depends on parental o…
In female mammals, one X chromosome is transcriptionally inactivated (XCI), leading to dosage compensation between sexes, which is fundamental for embryo viability. We recently analyzed X chromosome allele-specific expression globally during human embryonic development, and identified the XCI process to start during human preimplantation development at the blastocyst stage in a random pat…
