Q. What is Barr body Genes?
Located inside nuclear envelope, it's a densely staining object which is an inactivated X chromosome in female mammalian cells. Most Barr body genes aren't expressed. They are reactivated in gonadal cells that undergo meiosis to form gametes. Female mammals are a mosaic of two different types of cells, those with an active maternal X and those with an active paternal X. Which of the two Xs will be inactivated is concluded randomly in embryonic cells. After an X is inactivated, all mitotic descendants will have same inactive X. As a consequence, if a female is heterozygous for a sex-linked trait, about half of her cells will express one allele and the other cells well express alternate allele. Illustrations of this type of mosaicism are coloration in calico cats and normal sweat gland development in humans. A woman who is heterozygous for this trait has patches of skin and patches of skin lacking sweat glands. X chromosome inactivation is related with DNA methylation. Methyl groups (-CH3) attach to cytosine, one of DNA's nitrogenous bases. Barr bodies are highly methylated compared to actively transcribed DNA. What determines which of two X chromosomes would be methylated? - A newly discovered gene, XIST is active only on the Barr body. Product of the XIST gene, X-inactive specific transcript, is an RNA; multiple copies of XIST attach to X chromosome inactivating it.
