Targeting microRNA-dependent control of X chromosome inactivation improves the Rett Syndrome phenotype

Abstract X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is induced by Xist long non-coding RNA and protein-coding genes. However, the role of small non-coding RNA function in XCI remains unidentified. Our genome-wide, loss-of-function CRISPR/Cas9 screen in female fibroblasts identified microRNAs (miRNAs) as regula...
