[C.elegansII] y130 : maternal ts lethal to XX animals, as a result of X chromosome overexpression;fully penetrant at restrictive temperature (25C). XO animals viable abnormal males: scrawny, slow-growing, mating defective. OA1: y228am. Cloned: 0.6 kb transcript, encodes 123 aa novel protein; antibody staining indicates DPY-30 ubiquitous nuclear protein, present in both sexes. Upstream gene in operon with rnp-1.

Structured_description Provisional_descriptionThe dpy-30 gene encodes an essential nuclear protein required for hermaphrodite dosage compensation as well as normal male development; DPY-30 is expressed ubiquitously throughout development and can be detected in two different multiprotein complexes: the SDC complex involved in dosage compensation and a second complex containing NOX-1 (a WD repeat-containing protein) and ASH-2 (a trithorax-related protein) that is homologous to the yeast Set1p complex involved in epigenetic regulation of transcription.
