Female mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) contain two active X chromosomes, with one undergoing random inactivation upon differentiation. Schulz et al. (2014) now demonstrate that the presence of two active X chromosomes in mESCs prevents exit from pluripotency by blocking MAPK signaling, ensuring synchronization between X chromosome dosage compensation and development.
雌性小鼠胚胎干细胞(mESCs)含有两条活性 X 染色体,其中一条在分化过程中随机失活。Schulz 等人(2014 年)现在证明,mESCs 中两条活性 X 染色体的存在通过阻断 MAPK 信号通路阻止多能性的退出,确保 X 染色体剂量补偿和发育之间的同步。
