dosage compensation complex assembly involved in dosage compensation by hyperactivation of X chromosome
id: GO:0016457
name: dosage compensation complex assembly involved in dosage compensation by hyperactivation of X chromosome
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of proteins on DNA to form the complex that mediates dosage compensation on the X chromosome of the heterogametic sex, ultimately resulting in a two-fold increase in transcription from this chromosome. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster.
