“…Recent biochemical purifications revealed that both the Drosophila and mammalian MOF proteins reside in multi-protein complexes and that most of these interacting proteins are conserved between Drosophila and mammals (Table 2; Dou et al, 2005;Smith et al, 2005;Mendjan et al, 2006). Co-purification of four human MSL proteins (hMSL1, hMSL2, hMSL3 and hMOF) showed that the MSL (Borrow et al, 1996;Carapeti et al, 1998;Champagne et al, 1999Champagne et al, , 2001Chaffanet et al, 2000;Kitabayashi et al, 2001;Pelletier et al, 2002;Bristow and Shore, 2003;Deguchi et al, 2003;Kindle et al, 2005;Katsumoto et al, 2006;Thomas et al, 2006;Ohta et al, 2007 Abbreviation: HAT, histone acetyltransferases.…”
