dosage compensation complex assembly involved in dosage compensation by hypoactivation of X chromosome
id: GO:0042715
name: dosage compensation complex assembly involved in dosage compensation by hypoactivation 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 both X chromosomes in the monogametic sex, ultimately resulting in a two-fold reduction in transcription from these chromosomes. An example of this process is found in Caenorhabditis elegans.
