GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. differential methylation of differentially methylated domains in Xite constitutes a primary mark for epigenetic regulation
    Title: Differential methylation of Xite and CTCF sites in Tsix mirrors the pattern of X-inactivation choice in mice.
  2. chromosome pairing occurs transiently at X inactivation onset and is specific to the X-inactivation center;Tsix and Xite function both in cis and in trans; propose that Tsix and Xite regulate counting and mutually exclusive choice through X-X pairing
    Title: Transient homologous chromosome pairing marks the onset of X inactivation.
  3. knockout and transgenic analysis identified DNA sequences within the noncoding Tsix and Xite genes as numerators for X chromosome counting during the process of X inactivation.
    Title: Regulation of X-chromosome counting by Tsix and Xite sequences.
