Summary |
The mammalian inactive X-chromosome (Xi) is structurally distinct from all other chromosomes and serves as a model for higher order chromosome organization. The Xi lacks strong topologically associated domains and is instead organized into megadomains and superloops mediated in part by the noncoding loci, Dxz4 and Firre. Their functional significance is presently unclear, though one study suggests that they permit Xi genes to escape silencing. Here, we find that megadomains do not form before silencing spreads along the Xi. Deletional analysis shows that Dxz4, but not Firre, is required for megadomains. Surprisingly, however, deleting neither Dxz4 nor Firre impacts Xi silencing or gene escape. Nor does it affect Xi nuclear localization, stability, or H3K27 methylation. Furthermore, ectopic integration of Dxz4 and Xist is not sufficient to form megadomains on autosomes, thereby uncoupling megadomain formation from chromosomal silencing. We conclude that Dxz4 and megadomains are dispensable for Xi silencing and escape.
