Researchers uncover dozens of traits driven by maternal versus paternal genes

By tracing maternal and paternal inheritance without parental DNA, scientists have mapped dozens of parent-specific genetic effects, uncovering…

New paper explains why females are prone to #autoimmune diseases
80% of #patients with autoimmune diseases are #female. There is evidence suggesting that it's females’ double complement of #Xchromosome that puts them at such heightened risk for autoimmune diseases. Female cells have two X #chromosomes, whereas males have one X chromosome and one #Ychromosome (at least in mammals).
A system that shuts down one of two X chromosomes is targeted by auto-antibodies. https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/02/female-propensity-for-autoimmune-diseases-tied-to-x-chromosome-inactivation/

@biorxiv_genetics "Somatic cells of human males and females have 45 chromosomes in common, including the "active" X chromosome. In males the 46th chromosome is a Y; in females it is an "inactive" X (Xi). Through linear modeling of autosomal gene expression in cells from individuals with zero to three Xi and zero to four Y chromosomes, we found that Xi and Y impact autosomal expression broadly and with remarkably similar effects." #genetics #GeneExpression #XLinked #Xchromosome
