The DXS423E gene has been localized to Xp11.21 and is expressed in somatic cell hybrids retaining either the human active or inactive X chromosome, demonstrating that DXS423E escapes X chromosome inactivation. The XE169 (DXS1272E or SMCX) gene that escapes X chromosome inactivation is also located in Xp11.21-11.22 and maps within the same YAC as DXS423E. Thus the DXS423E and XE169 genes define a new region in the proximal short arm of the X chromosome that is not subject to X chromosome inactivation, supporting a regional basis for escape from inactivation.

D005810 Multigene Family A set of genes descended by duplication and variation from some ancestral gene. Such genes may be clustered together on the same chromosome or dispersed on different chromosomes. Examples of multigene families include those that encode the hemoglobins, immunoglobulins, histocompatibility antigens, actins, tubulins, keratins, collagens, heat shock proteins, salivary glue proteins, chorion proteins, cuticle proteins, yolk proteins, and phaseolins, as well as histones, ribosomal RNA, and transfer RNA genes. The latter three are examples of reiterated genes, where hundreds of identical genes are present in a tandem array.
