Global regulation of X chromosomal genes by the MSL complex in Drosophila melanogaster.

abstract：:Multiple DNA repair pathways maintain genome stability and ensure that DNA remains essentially unchanged over the life of a cell. Various human diseases occur if DNA repair is compromised, and most of these impact the nervous system, in some cases exclusively. However, it is often unclear what specific endogenous dama...
