Correct dosage of X chromosome transcription is controlled by a nuclear pore component

Summary: Dosage compensation in Drosophila melanogaster involves a 2-fold transcriptional upregulation of the male X chromosome, which relies on the X-chromosome-binding males-specific lethal (MSL) complex. However, how such 2-fold precision is accomplished remains unclear. Here, we show that a nucl...
