The Drosophila Over Compensating Males Gene Genetically Inhibits Dosage Compensation in Males
Male Drosophila are monosomic for the X chromosome, but survive due to dosage compensation. They use the Male Specific Lethal (MSL) complex composed of noncoding roX RNA and histone modifying enzymes to hypertranscribe most genes along the X ∼1.6–1.8 fold relative to each female allele. It is not kn...
