Abstract
Mouse-human cell hybrid clones retaining an inactive translocated chromosome involving the human X and 13 were isolated. Esterase D, a marker on the segment of chromosome 13 translocated to the X, was not expressed in these clones. These results provide genetic evidence for the spreading of inactivation into the autosomal segment in an inactive human X-autosome translocation.
