In Drosophila, two chromosome-wide compensatory systems have been characterized; the dosage compensation system acting on the male X-chromosome and the chromosome specific regulation of genes located on the heterochromatic 4th chromosome. Dosage compensation in Drosophila is accomplished by hypertra...

In Drosophila, the global increase in transcription from the X chromosome in males to compensate for its monosomy is mediated by the male-specific-lethal complex (MSL-C) consisting of five proteins and two non-coding RNAs, roX1 and roX2. After an initial sequence dependent recognition by the MSL-C o...
