Feedback control of sex determination by dosage compensation revealed through Caenorhabditis elegans sdc-3 mutations.

Genetics - 1 Apr 1993

DeLong L, Plenefisch J D, Klein R D, Meyer B J

Abstract excerpt

In Caenorhabditis elegans, sex determination and dosage compensation are coordinately controlled through a group of genes that respond to the primary sex determination signal. Here we describe a new gene, sdc-3, that also controls these processes. In contrast to previously described genes, the sex determination and dosage compensation activities of sdc-3 are separately mutable, indicating that they function...
