Abstract

The Xist sequence has several characteristics that make it a potential candidate for the X-inactivation center. To investigate the role of Xist and adjacent sequences lying within the X-inactivation center candidate region, a 460-kb region surrounding the murine Xist sequence has been arrayed in lambda contigs with a combination of IRS-PCR-based hybridization and YAC fragmentation. The orientation of the Xist sequence in relation to the telomere and centromere of the X Chromosome (Chr) has been established with this contig and shown to be inverted compared to that in human.
