Function
DPY21_CAEEL Required for X chromosome dosage compensation by reducing X-linked gene transcription in hermaphrodites throughout development (PubMed:14660541, PubMed:23028348, PubMed:3779843, PubMed:3478715, PubMed:26641248, PubMed:22393255). Might be involved in the regulation of histone H4 post-translational modifications on the X chromosome leading to transcriptional repression of X-linked genes (PubMed:22393255, PubMed:23028348, PubMed:26641248). Involved in the regulation of growth, fecundity and body fat metabolism downstream of the TOR complex 2 and the protein kinase sgk-1 pathway (PubMed:23884442). Also involved in male tail development (PubMed:6537930).[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]
