## Abstract In female mouse embryos, the paternal X chromosome (Xp) is preferentially inactivated during preimplantation development and trophoblast differentiation. This imprinted Xβchromosome inactivation (XCI) is partly due to an activating imprint on the maternal X chromosome (Xm), which is set
By means of a double labeling method with H3-thymidine and 5-bromodeoxyuridine, it was found that the X chromosome showed no sign of change from an allocyclic to an isocyclic state, or vice vers in 6.5- and 7.5-day mouse embryos. Thus, reversal of allocycly may not account for the predominance of ce
