<h4>Background</h4>Gene dosage change is a mild perturbation that is a valuable tool for pathway reconstruction in Drosophila. While it is often assumed that reducing gene dose by half leads to two-fold less expression, there is partial autosomal dosage compensation in Drosophila, which may be mediated by feedback or buffering in expression networks.<h4>Results</h4>We profiled expression in engineered flies where gene dose was reduced from two to one. While expression of most one-dose genes was ...[more]
