Transcription profiling of human gender specific Stratagene RNA to examine dosage compensation of the active X in mammals


ABSTRACT: Here, we show that doubling of the global expression level of the X chromosome achieves dosage compensation in somatic tissues from several mammalian species. X-linked genes are highly expressed in brain tissues, consistent with a role in cognitive functions. Experiment Overall Design: Eight arrays were acquired from Affymetrix. Total gender-specific RNA was purchased from Stratagene. Probe labeling, array hybridization and scanning were done by the University of Washington Microarray Center (TUhttp://ra.microslu.washington.edu/UT). cDNA arrays.

Dosage compensation of the active X chromosome in mammals.

Monosomy of the X chromosome owing to divergence between the sex chromosomes leads to dosage compensation mechanisms to restore balanced expression between the X and the autosomes. In Drosophila melanogaster, upregulation of the male X leads to dosage compensation. It has been hypothesized that mammals likewise upregulate their active X chromosome. Together with X inactivation, this mechanism would maintain balanced expression between the X chromosome and autosomes and between the sexes. Here, w  ...[more]
