827:, a site involved in epigenetic regulation, in the human Tsix gene prevents Tsix from imprinting on the X chromosomes. Instead, the human Tsix chromosome is coexpressed with the human Xist gene on the inactivated X chromosome, indicating that it does not play an important role in random X chromosome inactivation. An

may be a more likely candidate for regulating this process in humans. The presence of Tsix in humans may be an evolutionary vestige, a sequence that no longer has a function in humans. Alternately, it may be necessary to study cells closer to the X inactivation stage rather than older cells in order

Female mammals are therefore called genetic mosaics, for having two different X chromosomes expressed throughout

problems: the two X chromosomes in the female will create twice as many gene products as the one X in the male. To mitigate this, one of the X chromosomes is inactivated in females, so that each sex only has one set of X chromosome genes. The inactive X chromosome in cells of females is visible as a
726:
Xist is only expressed from the future inactive X chromosome in females and is able to "coat" the chromosome from which it was produced. Many copies of Xist RNA bind the future inactivated X chromosome. Tsix prevents the accumulation of Xist on the future active female X chromosome to maintain the
764:
Tsix and Xist regulate X chromosome protein production in female mice to prevent early embryonic mortality. X inactivation allows for equal dosage of X-linked genes for both males and females by inactivating the extra X chromosome in the females. Mutation of the maternal Tsix gene can cause over
765:
accumulation of Xist on both X chromosomes, silencing both X chromosomes in females and the single X chromosome in male. This can cause early mortality. However, if the paternal Tsix allele is active, it can rescue female embryos from the over-accumulation of Xist.
773:
When one allele of Tsix in mice is null, the inactivation is skewed toward the mutant X chromosome. This is due to an accumulation of Xist that is not countered by Tsix, and causes the mutant chromosome to be inactivated. When both alleles of Tsix are null

757:. Thus, Xist does not condense chromatin on the other X chromosome, letting it remain active. This does not occur on the other chromosome, and Xist proceeds to inactivate that chromosome. Tsix also functions to silence transcription of Xist through
739:
In the extra-embryonic lineage in mice and some other mammals, all female individuals have two X chromosomes. However, during embryonic development, an X chromosome is deactivated, while the other X chromosome is left untouched, in a process called
798:
in an embryonic stem cell, factors inhibit Xist transcription. These factors also upregulate transcription of Tsix, which serves to inhibit Xist further. This cell is then able to remain pluripotent as X inactivation is not accomplished.
