Avian sex chromosomes: dosage compensation matters [PDF]

open access: yesChromosome Research, 2009
In 2001 it was established that, contrary to our previous understanding, a mechanism exists that equalises the expression levels of Z chromosome genes found in male (ZZ) and female (ZW) birds (McQueen et al. 2001). More recent large scale studies have revealed that avian dosage compensation is not a chromosome-wide phenomenon and that the degree of ...

COVID‐19 Vaccination Is Not Associated With the Development of Idiopathic Inflammatory Myositis in US Veterans

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Several case reports have proposed a potential association between COVID‐19 vaccination and the subsequent development of idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM). This study examined prior COVID‐19 vaccination in US veterans who developed new‐onset IIM compared to those without new‐onset IIM.

Global chromatin conformation differences in the Drosophila dosage compensated chromosome X

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
In Drosophila, dosage compensation involves a twofold transcriptional upregulation of the single male chromosome X. Here the authors show that global conformational differences are specifically present in the male X chromosome and detectable using Hi-C ...

Exploring the Complexity of Protein-Level Dosage Compensation that Fine-Tunes Stoichiometry of Multiprotein Complexes.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2020
Proper control of gene expression levels upon various perturbations is a fundamental aspect of cellular robustness. Protein-level dosage compensation is one mechanism buffering perturbations to stoichiometry of multiprotein complexes through accelerated ...

Painting of Fourth and the X-Linked 1.688 Satellite in D. melanogaster Is Involved in Chromosome-Wide Gene Regulation

open access: yesCells, 2020
Chromosome-specific regulatory mechanisms provide a model to understand the coordinated regulation of genes on entire chromosomes or on larger genomic regions. In fruit flies, two chromosome-wide systems have been characterized: The male-specific lethal (

Clinical considerations in transitioning patients with epilepsy from clonazepam to clobazam: a case series. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
IntroductionIn treating refractory epilepsy, many clinicians are interested in methods used to transition patients receiving clonazepam to clobazam to maintain or increase seizure control, improve tolerability of patients' overall drug therapy regimens ...

The origins and evolution of chromosomes, dosage compensation, and mechanisms underlying venom regulation in snakes

open access: yesGenome Research, 2019
Here we use a chromosome-level genome assembly of a prairie rattlesnake (Crotalus viridis), together with Hi-C, RNA-seq, and whole-genome resequencing data, to study key features of genome biology and evolution in reptiles.

Evolution of dosage compensation does not depend on genomic background

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Organisms evolved various mechanisms to cope with the differences in the gene copy numbers between sexes caused by degeneration of Y and W sex chromosomes.

Sex chromosomes: Evolving dosage compensation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1998
Dosage compensation of some X-linked genes varies among mammals. Inactivation of an X-linked copy of a gene in females appears to correlate with lack of an active homologue on the Y chromosome, implying that dosage compensation evolves in response to the loss of function of genes on the Y.

Pluripotent cells will not dosage compensate [PDF]

open access: yesWorm, 2014
Dosage compensation is the mechanism that balances gene expression levels between males and females as well as between the X chromosome and autosomes. In mammals, loss of pluripotency and differentiation are closely linked with the onset of dosage compensation. Pluripotency factors negatively regulate Xist (the non-coding RNA that triggers X chromosome
