X-inactivation and brain development: 2010

x-inactivation turns off one x in every cell. In turner syndrome one X is missing. What is the difference? Why is a missing X so devastating while an inactivated X is normal.

In turn is seem that the X dosage is normal ( only one is all you need) . So I don't get it.

Studies of X inactivation and isodisomy in twins provide further evidence that the X chromosome is not involved in Rett syndrome.
