Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: The loss of the entire X chromosome in Drosophila males generates a genome-wide aneuploid effect. We have employed a systems biology approach (microarray) to investigate the global aneuploid effect of the maleless (mle) mutation that disrupts the binding of male specific lethal (MSL) proteins that function in dosage compensation. A large number of the genes (144) that encode a broad spectrum of...
