Dynamics of the two heterochromatin types during imprinted X chromosome inactivation in vole Microtus levis.

In rodent female mammals, there are two forms of X-inactivation - imprinted and random which take place in extraembryonic and embryonic tissues, respectively. The inactive X-chromosome during random X-inactivation was shown to contain two types of facultative heterochromatin that alternate and do no...
