The status of dosage compensation in the multiple X chromosomes of the platypus.

PLoS genetics - 25 Jul 2008

Deakin Janine E, Hore Timothy A, Koina Edda, Marshall Graves Jennifer A

Abstract excerpt

Dosage compensation has been thought to be a ubiquitous property of sex chromosomes that are represented differently in males and females. The expression of most X-borne genes is equalized between XX females and XY males in therian mammals (marsupials and "placentals") by inactivating one X chromosome in female somatic cells. However, compensation seems not to be strictly required to equalize the expression of...
