Multi-level transcriptional regulation of embryonic sex determination and dosage compensation by the X-signal element sex-1

This study identifies additional roles of the C. elegans sex-1 gene in regulating sex determination and dosage compensation beyond its known repression of xol-1.

Condensin IDC has a Functional ATPase That is Required for X-Chromosome Dosage Compensation in C. elegans

The paper shows that the ATPase function of DPY-27 in C. elegans is essential for dosage compensation by enabling DNA binding, X-chromosome condensation, and H4K20me1 enrichment.

Distinct regulatory mechanisms by the nuclear Argonautes HRDE-1 and NRDE-3 in the soma of Caenorhabditis elegans.

This study investigates the transcriptional effects of disrupting nuclear RNAi in C. elegans, showing that while X chromosome decondensation occurs, global transcriptional de-repression is not observed, and HRDE-1 and NRDE-3 regulate their targets through distinct mechanisms.

Condensin IDC, H4K20me1, and perinuclear tethering maintain X chromosome repression in C. elegans

The paper shows that condensin IDC is required to maintain X chromosome repression in C. elegans larvae and adults, but not during embryogenesis.

XOL-1 regulates developmental timing by modulating the H3K9 landscape in C. elegans early embryos

This study shows XOL-1 regulates developmental timing and dosage compensation in C. elegans hermaphrodite embryos by modulating the H3K9 methylation landscape.

Dual Roles for Nuclear RNAi Argonautes in C. elegans Dosage Compensation

This study identifies nuclear Argonaute genes involved in dosage compensation in C. elegans, showing they regulate X chromosome condensation independently of xol-1.
