    N-terminus of Drosophila melanogaster MSL1 is critical for dosage compensation

    Valentin Babosha, Natalia Klimenko ... Oksana Maksimenko
    N‑terminus of MSL1 protein, involved in dosage compensation in Drosophila, is required for the interaction with non-coding roX2 RNA and the assembly of the complex on the male X chromosome.

    Dynamics and regulatory roles of RNA m6A methylation in unbalanced genomes

    Shuai Zhang, Ruixue Wang ... Lin Sun
    Global analyses using aneuploid Drosophila revealed the dynamic roles of RNA m6A modification in regulating gene expression and development under genomic imbalance, highlighting its potential relationships with dosage-related effects.

    The life cycle of Drosophila orphan genes

    Nicola Palmieri, Carolin Kosiol, Christian Schlötterer
    The short lifetime of orphan genes is a major factor explaining the stability of gene number in Drosophila.

    Expansion and loss of sperm nuclear basic protein genes in Drosophila correspond with genetic conflicts between sex chromosomes

    Ching-Ho Chang, Isabel Mejia Natividad, Harmit S Malik
    Genetic conflicts between sex chromosomes during spermatogenesis may drive the rapid evolution, function, and turnover of some sperm nuclear basic proteins in Drosophila species.

    ASAR lncRNAs control DNA replication timing through interactions with multiple hnRNP/RNA binding proteins

    Mathew Thayer, Michael B Heskett ... Phillip A Yates
    Molecular genetic analyses of ASARs reveals regulation of large-scale mammalian chromosome structure and function that includes long non-coding RNAs and nuclear RNA binding proteins as essential regulators of chromosome dynamics.

    Multiple 9-1-1 complexes promote homolog synapsis, DSB repair, and ATR signaling during mammalian meiosis

    Catalina Pereira, Gerardo A Arroyo-Martinez ... Robert S Weiss
    Alternative 9-1-1 complexes have evolved to play essential roles in mammalian meiosis and function to activate the protein kinase ATR and promote key meiotic events necessary for fertility.

    X-chromosome target specificity diverged between dosage compensation mechanisms of two closely related Caenorhabditis species

    Qiming Yang, Te-Wen Lo ... Barbara J Meyer
    Regulatory hierarchies controlling sex determination and X-chromosome dosage compensation between closely-related nematode species are conserved, but X-chromosome target specificity for the condensin dosage compensation complex has diverged, thereby contributing to reproductive isolation.

    Disease modeling and pharmacological rescue of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa associated with RHO copy number variation

    Sangeetha Kandoi, Cassandra Martinez ... Deepak A Lamba
    Stem cell-derived retinal organoids are a useful tool to understand the pathobiology of devastating retinal degenerations and can aid to identify and validate therapeutics to promote rescue.

    Rapid adaptation to malaria facilitated by admixture in the human population of Cabo Verde

    Iman Hamid, Katharine L Korunes ... Amy Goldberg
    Admixture-mediated adaptation to malaria in a human population demonstrates that detectible signatures in genomic patterns of ancestry can be leveraged to better characterize recent selection in populations with mixed ancestry.

    Guy1, a Y-linked embryonic signal, regulates dosage compensation in Anopheles stephensi by increasing X gene expression

    Yumin Qi, Yang Wu ... Zhijian Jake Tu
    For the first time in a mosquito species an initial Y chromosome signal has been shown to regulate dosage compensation by increasing X chromosome gene expression.
