Gene Dosage Balance in Cellular Pathways

THE gene dosage balance hypothesis (GDBH) proposes, in a narrow sense, that stoichiometric imbalances in macromolecular complexes can be a source of dominant phenotypes. Gene dosage balance in such complexes is required as a “here and now” condition, as a partial aneuploid carrying a deletion or
