Live-Cell Imaging and Functional Dissection of Xist RNA Reveal Mechanisms of X Chromosome Inactivation and Reactivation

Summary: We double-tagged Xist (inactivated X chromosome-specific transcript), a prototype long non-coding RNA pivotal for X chromosome inactivation (XCI), using the programmable RNA sequence binding domain of Pumilio protein, one tag for live-cell imaging and the other replacing A-repeat (a critica...
