Other interactions of msl-3

  • We found that MSL-2 binds in a reproducible, partial pattern to the male X chromosome in the absence of MLE or MSL-3, or when ectopically expressed at a low level in females [8].
  • Interaction with MSL1 mediates the activation of MOF in vitro and the targeting of MSL3 to the X-chromosomal territory in vivo [9].
  • By characterizing the MSL3 domain structure and its associated functions, we now found that the nucleic acid binding determinants reside in the N terminus of MSL3, well separable from the C-terminal MRG signatures that form an integrated domain required for MSL1 interaction [9].
  • These analyses also suggest that the msl-3/MRG15 duplication occurred after the fungus/animal split, while an independent duplication occurred in plants [10].
