摘要
Dosage compensation complex (DCC), which consists of five proteins and two non-coding RNAs roX, specifically binds to the X chromosome in males, providing a higher level of gene expression necessary to compensate for the monosomy of the sex chromosome in male Drosophila compared to the two X chromosomes in females. The MSL2 protein contains the N-terminal RING domain, which acts as an E3 ligase in ubiquitination of proteins and is the only subunit of the complex expressed only in males. Functional role of the two C-terminal domains of the MSL2 protein, enriched with proline (P-domain) and basic amino acids (B-domain), was investigated. As a result, it was shown that the B-domain destabilizes the MSL2 protein, which is associated with the presence of two lysines ubiquitination of which is under control of the RING domain of MSL2. The unstructured proline-rich domain stimulates transcription of the roX2 gene, which is necessary for effective formation of the dosage compensation complex.
