Identification of the RSX interactome in a marsupial shows functional coherence with the Xist interactome during X inactivation
Abstract The marsupial specific Body Protectors RSX lncRNA is the functional analogue of the eutherian specific XIST, which coordinates X chromosome inactivation.We characterized the RSX interactome in a marsupial representative (the opossum Monodelphis domestica), identifying 135 proteins, of which 54 had orthologues in the XIST interactome.Both i
