X Chromosome Inactivation: Breakthrough in Gene Therapy
May 6, 2025

X Chromosome Inactivation is a fascinating biological process crucial to understanding genetic disorders, particularly those linked to the X chromosome.In females, the presence of two X chromosomes necessitates a complex mechanism of chromosomal silencing to ensure that gene dosage is balanced with males, who have just one X chromosome.

X Chromosome Inactivation: Key to Treating Genetic Diseases
April 7, 2025

The process of X chromosome inactivation is a fascinating phenomenon critical to understanding genetic diseases, particularly those linked to the X chromosome, such as Fragile X Syndrome and Rett Syndrome.In females, having two X chromosomes poses a unique challenge, as they must effectively silence one to avoid an overexpression of X-linked genes.
