Non-canonical Drosophila X chromosome dosage compensation and repressive topologically associated domains

Non-canonical Drosophila X chromosome dosage compensation and repressive topologically associated domains

Abstract Background In animals with XY sex chromosomes, X-linked genes from a single X chromosome in males are imbalanced relative to autosomal genes. To minimize the impact of genic imbalance in male Drosophila, there is a dosage compensation complex (MSL) that equilibrates X-linked gene expression...
