Dynamic sex chromosome expression in Drosophila male germ cells

Dynamic sex chromosome expression in Drosophila male germ cells

Sex chromosome gene content and expression is unusual. Here the authors use single cell RNA-Seq on Drosophila larvae to demonstrate that the single X and pair of 4th chromosomes are specifically inactivated in primary spermatocytes, while genes on the single Y chromosome become maximally active in p...
