Dynamics of gene silencing during X inactivation using allele-specific RNA-seq.

Genome biology | 2015

During early embryonic development, one of the two X chromosomes in mammalian female cells is inactivated to compensate for a potential imbalance in transcript levels with male cells, which contain a single X chromosome. Here, we use mouse female embryonic stem cells (ESCs) with non-random X chromosome inactivation (XCI) and polymorphic X chromosomes to study the dynamics of gene silencing over the inactive X chromosome by high-resolution allele-specific RNA-seq.

GSNAP (tool)

RRID:SCR_005483

Software to align single and paired end reads as short as 14 nt and of arbitrarily long length. Can detect short and long distance splicing, including interchromosomal splicing, in individual reads, using probabilistic models or database of known splice sites. Permits SNP-tolerant alignment to reference space of all possible combinations of major and minor alleles, and can align reads from bisulfite-treated DNA for study of methylation state.
