Dosage compensation in the mouse balances up-regulation and silencing of X-linked genes. by Hong Lin, Vibhor Gupta, Matthew D Vermilyea, Francesco Falciani, Jeannie T Lee, Laura P O'Neill, Bryan M Turner

“…Embryonic stem (ES) cells derived from the ICM of female mice have two active X chromosomes, one of which is inactivated as the cells differentiate in culture, providing a powerful model system to study the dynamics of X inactivation. Using microarrays to assay expression of X-linked genes in undifferentiated female and male mouse ES cells, we detect global up-regulation of expression (1.4- to 1.6-fold) from the active X chromosomes, relative to autosomes. …”
