Single-cell RNA-sequencing reveals pre-meiotic X-chromosome dosage compensation in Drosophila testis.
Dosage compensation equalizes X-linked expression between XY males and XX females. In male fruit flies, expression levels of the X-chromosome are increased approximately two-fold to compensate for their single X chromosome. In testis, dosage compensation is thought to cease during meiosis; however,...
