    2. The targeting of protein Painting of fourth to PoX1(POF-on-X) and PoX2 is largely dependent on roX expression and identified a high-affinity target region that ectopically recruits POF.
      Title: Targeting of Painting of fourth to roX1 and roX2 proximal sites suggests evolutionary links between dosage compensation and the regulation of the fourth chromosome in Drosophila melanogaster.
    3. POF binds to nascent RNA, and this binding is associated with increased transcription output from chromosome 4

    4. Together with Egg, Wde (Windei) localizes to euchromatin, is enriched on chromosome 4, and binds to the Painting of fourth (POF) protein.
      Title: Windei, the Drosophila homolog of mAM/MCAF1, is an essential cofactor of the H3K9 methyl transferase dSETDB1/Eggless in germ line development.
    5. These results suggest a balancing mechanism for the regulation of the fourth chromosome where POF and HP1 competitively bind at increasing levels with increased transcriptional activity.

    6. POF is involved in a chromosome-specific regulatory function
      Title: Painting of fourth in genus Drosophila suggests autosome-specific gene regulation.
    7. There is a balancing mechanism involving POF and HP1 that provides a feedback system for fine-tuning expression status of genes on the 4th chromosome.
