  The chirally-odd twist-3 nucleon distribution e(x) is studied in the large-Nc
limit in the framework of the chiral quark-soliton model at a low normalization
point of about 0.6 GeV. The remarkable result is that in the model e(x)
contains a delta-function-type singularity at x=0. The regular part of e(x) is
found to be sizeable at the low scale of the model and in qualitative agreement
with bag model calculations.
