Skewed X-chromosome inactivation (skewed X-inactivation) occurs when the X-inactivation of one X chromosome is favored over the other, leading to an uneven...

skewed X-inactivation, in which the normal process of inactivating half of the female body's X chromosomes preferably targets a certain parent's X chromosome...

These include random inactivation of one female X chromosome (as observed in humans and Mus musculus; this is called X-inactivation), a two-fold increase...
