That is what random X chromosomes do in the female somatic cells. They form Barr bodies. This is a methylated X chromosome that effectively shuts this chromosome down, one per cell in a random manner. This is done by the body because too much protein product is detrimental to organisms.

Where is a barr body found?
A Barr body is the inactivated X chromosome that is usually found in the nuclei of female somatic cells. It can also occur in males when there is an abnormality and the male is XXY instead of the normal XY, a condition known as Klinefelter's syndrome. In this case, the male somatic cells would also contain a Barr body. --- The Barr body is the highly-condensed chromatin structure taken up by an inctivated X chromosome. The number of Barr bodies equal the number of inactive chromosomes.
