Drosophila UNR: a factor involved in the translational regulation of dosage compensation

Dosage compensation is a mechanism that equalizes the expression of X-linked genes in those organisms in which males and females differ in the number of X chromosomes. In Drosophila melanogaster, dosage compensation is achieved by up-regulating the transcription of the single male X chromosome. This...
