Drosophila MSL3 chromodomain

Function

[MSL3_DROME] The MSL proteins are essential for elevating transcription of the single X chromosome in the male (X chromosome dosage compensation). Mle, msl-1 and msl-3 are colocalized on the X chromosome. Each of the MSL proteins requires all the other MSLs for wild-type X-chromosome binding.[1]

About this Structure

3m9q is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Drosophila melanogaster. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
