Among a number of genes that escape X–chromosome inactivation in humans, three have been evaluated in mice and unexpectedly all three are subject to X–inactivation. We report here the cloning and expression studies of a novel mouse gene,Xe169, and show that it escapes X–inactivation like its human homologue.Xe169was assigned to band F2/F3 on the mouse X chromosome by fluorescentin situhybridization and Southern analysis indicates that the gene is located outside the pseudoautosomal region. Homologous, but divergent, sequences exist on the Y chromosome.In vitroandin vivostudies show thatXe169is expressed from both the active and the inactive X chromosomes.Xe169is the first cloned non–pseudoautosomal gene that escapes X–inactivaton in mice.
