TLDR
The X linkage of loci coding for glucose-6-phosphate de-hydrogenase (G6PD), hypoxanthine-ph phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT), and phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) has been determined for the mouse species Mus musculus and M. caroli.
Abstract
THE X linkage of loci coding for glucose-6-phosphate de-hydrogenase (G6PD), hypoxanthine-phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT), and phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) has been determined for the mouse species Mus musculus and M. caroli. Evidence was obtained from a somatic cell genetic analysis of cultured embryonic cells of an interspecific hybrid foetus. The X-chromosomal assignment of these loci has been determined already for several other mammalian species. This evidence was obtained from genetic analyses of electrophoretic variants1 and enzyme deficiencies2,3; from the expression of these genes in viable interspecific hybrids4–6; from somatic cell genetic analyses of heterozygotes7–9, and from the expression of these loci in interspecific somatic cell hybrids10.

Expression of Xist during mouse development suggests a role in the initiation of X chromosome inactivation

TL;DR: The data support a direct role for Xist in the initiation of X inactivation, and the earliest Xist expression in morulae and blastocysts is imprinted, resulting in specific expression of the paternal Xist allele.

Human Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cell Behaviors on PCL/Gelatin Nanofibrous Scaffolds Modified with A Collagen IV-Derived RGD-Containing Peptide

TL;DR: This peptide modified nanofibrous scaffold can be a promising biomaterial for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine with the use of hBMSCs.

Mammalian X chromosome inactivation.

TL;DR: The initial step in mammalian sexual differentiation is based on the XX: XY chromosomal system, and a single X chromosome is active in the female soma so as to eliminate gross aneuploidy effects between males and females; this is the broad outline of mammalian X-chromosome regulation.

Comparative map for mice and humans.

TL;DR: This report summarizes the status of this comparative map and provided a listing of homologous genes and anonymous loci that have been mapped in mice and humans together with references documenting homology and the chromosomal and linkage assignments.

X–chromosome inactivation during differentiation of female teratocarcinoma stem cells in vitro

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that both X chromosomes are genetically active in clonal cultures of undifferentiated female mouse teratocarcinoma stem cells derived from a spontaneous ovarian tumour.

Gene Action in the X -chromosome of the Mouse ( Mus musculus L.)

TL;DR: Ohno and Hauschka1 showed that in female mice one chromosome of mammary carcinoma cells and of normal diploid cells of the ovary, mammary gland and liver was heteropyKnotic and suggested that the so-called sex chromatin was composed of one heteropyknotic X-chromosome.

Clonal growth of mammalian cells in vitro; growth characteristics of colonies from single HeLa cells with and without a feeder layer.

TL;DR: Application of the methods described in this paper as a tool for quantitative study of normal mammalian cell growth, physiology, genetics, and biochemistry, and the response of cells to drugs, viruses, high energy radiation, and other agents have been indicated.

X-chromosome inactivation and developmental patterns in mammals

Mary F. Lyon
- 01 Jan 1972 - 
TL;DR: The review considers information from mammalian embryology relevant to X‐chromosome inactivation, and from X‐inactivation relevant to mammalian embryologists, to derive conclusions about inactivation and its role in embryology.
