A new understanding of the role of the NSL complex

The non-specific lethal (NSL) complex is a chromatin-associated factor that has been shown to regulate the expression of thousands of genes in both fruit flies and mammals. Abrogation of the NSL genes leads to the death of the organism, and this phenotype gives rise to this complex’s curious name. Max Planck researchers have now identified […]
