The role of m6A RNA methylation in the maintenance of X chromosome inactivation and X-to-autosome dosage compensation in early embryonic lineages In this article, Gayen and colleagues demonstrate that m6A RNA methylation is dispensable for the maintenance of X chromosome inactivation; however, it partly contributes to the maintenance of X to au...

Writer Fuel: “Silent” X Chromosomes Reawaken In Older Females, Possibly Boosting Brain Power Dormant genes on the X chromosome may reawaken in old age, potentially giving the aging female brain a boost that the male brain doesn't receive. This phenomenon may help to explain why, on many measu...

WRITER FUEL: Females have one active X chromosome and one dormant X chromosome in each cell. But a study suggests that genes on the dormant X get "reawakened" later in life, potentially giving the brain a boost.

Silent X chromosome genes 'reawaken' in older females, perhaps boosting brain power, study finds #Science #Biology #Genetics #XChromosome #AgingBrain #GeneticsResearch

Why do women live longer and show greater cognitive resilience in aging? Aging can “reactivate” silent genes on the X chromosome—especially in the hippocampus—boosting brain function. Potential for new cognitive therapies? #AgingResearch #CognitiveResilience #XChromosome #Neuroscience
