2-D structure of the A region of Xist RNA and its implication for PRC2 association.

2-D structure of the A region of Xist RNA and its implication for PRC2 association.

In placental mammals, inactivation of one of the X chromosomes in female cells ensures sex chromosome dosage compensation. The 17 kb non-coding Xist RNA is crucial to this process and accumulates on the future inactive X chromosome. The most conserved Xist RNA region, the A region, contains eight or...
