Role of the male specific lethal (msl) genes in modifying the effects of sex chromosomal dosage in Drosophila.

Genetics - 1 May 1999

Bhadra U, Pal-Bhadra M, Birchler J A

Abstract excerpt

Immunostaining of chromosomes shows that the male-specific lethal (MSL) proteins are associated with all female chromosomes at a low level but are sequestered to the X chromosome in males. Histone-4 Lys-16 acetylation follows a similar pattern in normal males and females, being higher on the X and lower on the autosomes in males than in females. However, the staining pattern of acetylation and the mof gene...
