Sex Differences in Drosophila melanogaster Heterochromatin Are Regulated by Non-Sex Specific Factors.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Apte Manasi S, Meller Victoria H

Abstract excerpt

The eukaryotic genome is assembled into distinct types of chromatin. Gene-rich euchromatin has active chromatin marks, while heterochromatin is gene-poor and enriched for silencing marks. In spite of this, genes native to heterochromatic regions are dependent on their normal environment for full expression. Expression of genes in autosomal heterochromatin is reduced in male flies mutated for the noncoding roX...
