    Description: The initiation of X-chromosome inactivation is thought to be tightly correlated with early differentiation events during mouse development. Here, we show that although initially active, the paternal X chromosome undergoes imprinted inactivation from the cleavage stages, well before cellular differentiation. A reversal of the inactive state, with a loss of epigenetic marks such as histone modifications and polycomb proteins, subsequently occurs in cells of the inner cell mass (ICM), which give rise to the embryo-proper in which random X inactivation is known to occur. This reveals the remarkable plasticity of the X-inactivation process during preimplantation development and underlines the importance of the ICM in global reprogramming of epigenetic marks in the early embryo.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Okamoto, Ikuhiro -- Otte, Arie P -- Allis, C David -- Reinberg, Danny -- Heard, Edith -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Jan 30;303(5658):644-9.

    Description: It is generally accepted that paternally imprinted X inactivation occurs exclusively in extraembryonic lineages of mouse embryos, whereas cells of the embryo proper, derived from the inner cell mass (ICM), undergo only random X inactivation. Here we show that imprinted X inactivation, in fact, occurs in all cells of early embryos and that the paternal X is then selectively reactivated in cells allocated to the ICM. This contrasts with more differentiated cell types where X inactivation is highly stable and generally irreversible. Our observations illustrate that an important component of genome plasticity in early development is the capacity to reverse heritable gene silencing decisions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mak, Winifred -- Nesterova, Tatyana B -- de Napoles, Mariana -- Appanah, Ruth -- Yamanaka, Shinya -- Otte, Arie P -- Brockdorff, Neil -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Jan 30;303(5658):666-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉X inactivation group, MRC Clinical Sciences Centre, ICSM, Hammersmith Hospital, London, W12 0NN, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14752160" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
