  2. Drosophila roX RNA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drosophila_roX_RNA

    RoX RNA is a non-coding RNA (ncRNA) present in the male-specific lethal (MSL) complex and is required for sex dosage compensation in Drosophila.As males only contain one X chromosome, male flies dosage compensate for the X chromosome by hyper-transcribing the X chromosome.

  3. Sex-chromosome dosage compensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex-chromosome_dosage...

    Additionally, in plant species that lack dimorphic sex chromosomes, dosage compensation can occur when aberrant meiotic events or mutations result in either aneuploidy or polyploidy. Genes on the affected chromosome may be upregulated or down-regulated to compensate for the change in the normal number of chromosomes present.

  4. Chromatid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromatid

    Once the paired sister chromatids have separated from one another (in the anaphase of mitosis) each is known as a daughter chromosome. The short arm of the right chromatid (3), and the long arm of the right chromatid (4), are also marked. Schematic karyogram of the human chromosomes, showing their usual state in the G 0 and G 1 phase of the ...

  5. Gene dosage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_dosage

    Gene dosage is the number of copies of a particular gene present in a genome. [1] Gene dosage is related to the amount of gene product (proteins or functional RNAs) the cell is able to express. Since a gene acts as a template, the number of templates in the cell contributes to the amount of gene product able to be produced.

  6. Chromosomal crossover - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosomal_crossover

    Crossing over occurs between prophase I and metaphase I and is the process where two homologous non-sister chromatids pair up with each other and exchange different segments of genetic material to form two recombinant chromosome sister chromatids. It can also happen during mitotic division, [1] which may

  7. Sister chromatids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sister_chromatids

    In mitosis, the sister chromatids separate into the daughter cells, but are now referred to as chromosomes (rather than chromatids) much in the way that one child is not referred to as a single twin. Schematic karyogram of a human, showing a diploid set of chromosomes as seen in the G 0 and G 1 phases of the cell cycle (before DNA synthesis ...

  8. Anaphase lag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaphase_lag

    Anaphase lag is a consequence of an event during cell division where sister chromatids do not properly separate from each other because of improper spindle formation. [1] The chromosome or chromatid does not properly migrate during anaphase and the daughter cells will lose some genetic information.

  9. Fexofenadine/pseudoephedrine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fexofenadine/pseudoephedrine

    It contains fexofenadine, as the hydrochloride, an antihistamine; and pseudoephedrine, as the hydrochloride, a nasal decongestant. [ 2 ] In 2021, it was the 279th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 800,000 prescriptions.
